Reuniwatt Webinar Series Part 20:

Contrails observations with cameras and satellites – from lab to airfield?

In this webinar, we’ll explore state-of-the-art technology for detecting and monitoring contrails, and showcase two different methods, using all-sky imagers and satellite data, mastering the technical challenge of contrail identification and evaluation.

Topics discussed

• state-of-the-art methods for detecting and monitoring contrails and cirrus clouds
• using all-sky imagers as a way to observe and match contrails from the ground
• how satellite data and deep learning enable us to detect contrails amongst natural clouds
• the potential and limitations of technologies used for contrail avoidance
