Aviation LiDAR Systems
3D scanning wind LiDAR for airport wind shear detection, low-level wind shear alerting, runway wind profiling, and aviation safety applications.
Aviation Wind Sensing for New Zealand
Geospace NZ is the New Zealand distributor for the Leice Aviation LiDAR range — providing 3D scanning Doppler wind LiDAR systems for airport wind shear detection, low-level wind shear alerting systems (LLWAS), runway wind profiling, and aviation meteorology.
Leice aviation LiDAR systems are deployed at major international airports and aviation authorities worldwide, delivering real-time wind field data to improve flight safety, reduce go-arounds, and support air traffic management decisions.
