First Successful Trial of a Floating Lidar Device in Real Offshore Conditions in the North Sea
A full-size prototype of the floating lidar offshore resource assessment system, known as FLIDAR, has been successfully tested 15 kilometres off the Belgian coast. It was located next to a stationary lidar (WINDCUBEv2 lidar from Leosphere) on a fixed communication mast for the month of October 2011 in order to test survivability and validate the accuracy of the wind speed measurements.
