“…Nowadays, the blossoming of unmanned aircraft vehicle (UAV) development has completely changed the exploitation costs [14,15]. The drop in UAV exploitation costs triggered a renaissance in LIDAR instrument development [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. However, modern UAVs can carry only a few kg weight of compact sizes (10 × 10 × 10 cm 3 ) and low power consumption (<50 W), so the developed LIDAR instruments have to fit these requirements.…”

A compact and low-weight LIDAR instrument has been developed for laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy sensing of maize fields. Fluorescence LIDAR had to be installed on a small industrial drone so that its mass was <2 kg and power consumption was <5 W. The LIDAR instrument utilized a continuous wave diode laser (405 nm, 150 mW) for inducing fluorescence and a small spectrometer for backscattered photons acquisition. For field testing, the LIDAR instrument was installed on a quadcopter for remote sensing of plants in a maize field in three periods of the plant’s life. The obtained fluorescence signal maps have demonstrated that the average chlorophyll content is rather non-uniform over the field and tends to increase through the plant vegetation cycle. Field tests proved the feasibility and perspectives of autonomous LIDAR sensing of agricultural fields from drones for the detection and location of plants under stress.

An eye-safe photon counting light detection and ranging (LIDAR) instrument has been developed for magmatic aerosol sensing in real time. The developed LIDAR was based on a pulsed diode laser (transmitter, 910 nm, 3 ns, <1 µJ cm−2) and a single-photon avalanche photodiode. The instrument was designed to fit the requirements of highly sensitive sensing of aerosol dynamics at distances up to 50 meters. The accuracy of the LIDAR instrument ranging was estimated as 18 cm. Field experiments inside the Baksan Neutrino Observatory tunnel above the volcano Elbrus chamber revealed a good correlation between the magmatic aerosol dynamics and the Earth’s crust deformation due to Moon and Sun tides quantified by a tiltmeter and a laser strainmeter.
