Abstract
To compare the results of modeling with full scale situations in air pollution problems, it is necessary to measure accurately the successive states of the local atmosphere; from this point of view remote sensing techniques are useful so far as they are able to probe great atmospheric volumes with the necessary spatial and temporal continuity.
