Airports around the world rely on ceilometers, visibility, weather, and runway sensors from OTT HydroMet because they are flexible, easy to integrate, and long-term maintenance-free.
OTT HydroMet measuring instruments, software, and experts support you in every weather-related topic to improve safety and operational efficiency in any environmental conditions. We can support anything from building up Airport Weather Observation Systems (AWOS) and Runway Ice Detection Systems (IDS) to delivering decision support for flight scheduling.

Several Lufft CHM 15k Ceilometer Projects in India
The Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology has deployed Lufft CHM 15k ceilometers for several research studies.
Weather and Runway Observation for Airports
The Lufft sensors from the WS-product family are in operation on airports worldwide for real time weather observations. Moreover, the active and passive road- / runway sensors (IRS31-UMB and the ARS31-UMB) are in use on the runways for measurement of water film height or road surface temperature and freezing temperature, for example.
