İngilizce - İngilizce
A device that measures the altitude of the cloud base, especially above an airfield
a device using a laser or other light source to determine the height of a cloud base An optical ceilometer uses triangulation to determine the height of a spot of light projected onto the base of the cloud; a laser ceilometer determines the height by measuring the time required for a pulse of light to be scattered back from the cloud base
A device used to evaluate the height of clouds or the vertical visibility into a surface-based obscuration
An automatic device for measuring and recording the height of clouds by projecting a modulated beam of light onto a cloud base, receiving the reflection of light through a photoelectric apparatus and computing the height by triangulation
An automatic, recording cloud height indicator
Instrument used to measure cloud base height
An instrument that is used to measure the angular elevation of a projected light on the base of a cloud It measures the angle of the cloud base included by the observer (or machine), the ceiling light and the illuminated spot on the cloud
a device for measuring the height of the base of clouds
