CIR13
(Cloud Infrared Radiometer)
Automatic measurement of cloud cover during day and night
The use of infrared
technology
combined with sophisticated software processing permits CIR to supply a
complete image of
nebulosity (cloud cover) with an accuracy exceeding any existing
sensors. This automated measurement technique
allows a
repeatability that is consistently more accurate than the human eye.
Domains of application:
- Airport activities
- Climatological studies
- Air quality
- Weather forecasts
- Agriculture
CIR 13 provides:
- Nebulosity (cloud cover) measurement
for day and night
(with sample time from 1 minute to 3
hours)
- Ceiling height
(with sample time from 1
minute to 3 hours)
