  2. ICESat-2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICESat-2

    The sole instrument on ICESat-2 is the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS), a space-based lidar. It was designed and built at Goddard Space Flight Center, with the laser generation and detection systems provided by Fibertek.

  3. ICESat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICESat

    The sole instrument on ICESat was the Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS), a space-based lidar. GLAS combined a precision surface lidar with a sensitive dual-wavelength cloud and aerosol lidar. The GLAS lasers emit infrared and visible laser pulses at 1064- and 532-nm wavelengths.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathymetry

    The Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) on NASA's Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2 (ICESat-2) is a photon-counting lidar that uses the return time of laser light pulses from the Earth's surface to calculate altitude of the surface. ICESat-2 measurements can be combined with ship-based sonar data to fill in gaps and ...

  5. Autonomous Landing Hazard Avoidance Technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_Landing_Hazard...

    The Doppler lidar measures the vehicle's altitude and velocity to precisely land on the surface, and the high-altitude laser altimeter provides data enabling the vehicle to land in the chosen area. [10] The lidar laser technology scans an area for hazards like craters or rocks before the lander touches down.

  6. Operation IceBridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_IceBridge

    Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) – The Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) is a laser altimeter that bounces laser light off the ice surface and measures how long it takes to return. By combining this timing data with information about the aircraft's position and attitude, researchers can calculate ice elevation.
