Vaisala LAP®-8000 Mid-Tropospheric Wind Profiler
The
Vaisala LAP®-8000 Mid-Tropospheric Wind Profiler operates in the 440 - 490 MHz
frequency range. It is a fully customized product that is used to obtain wind
profiles to approximately 8000 meters as a valuable supplement to upper-air
observations in mesoscale and synoptic networks, and e.g. national border
security surveillance. By adding the Radio Acoustic Sounding System
(RASS) option, the system can provide measurements of virtual temperature.
