Abstract

For this work, we have gathered information concerning the physical layout and some uses of Lidar systems. Uses for Lidar systems include atmospheric science, for the purpose of weather prediction, to laser altimeter systems that may be used in mapping the Moon and Mars in future space missions. The collected information was obtained from the Laboratory for Terrestrial Physics' (LTP) atmospheric science branch, code 920, at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
