Keep an electronic eye on your lidar through the winter

Winter can play havoc with measurements. From tilted trailers to frozen power supplies and fog, there’s lots to keep an eye on.

Winter is here. Automated monitoring with our web app can help ensure high-quality data and keep your wind lidar and met masts up and running.

Find out faster

Minimise data gaps

With Moli you can see instantly if data have been uploaded recently and check the availability by day and hour. That means you can see if you need to check your communications system, call your power provider, or schedule a site visit.

Moli will email you if availability falls below a pre-defined threshold, so you don’t even need to visit the Moli website.

Keeping it level

Reduce uncertainty by avoiding tilted lidar

It’s important to install lidars as near to vertical as possible. But cold nights followed by warmer days can turn the ground to mud, and frost can heave platforms or trailers around. That can make your lidar tilt.

Moli automatically monitors the angle of your lidar. It’ll  email you if this changes suddenly or passes a pre-defined threshold. So, again, there’s no need to visit the website.

Avoid flat lines

Detect frozen sensors

Wind vanes can ice up in winter, giving false readings of the wind direction. Other sensors can struggle at low temperatures too and give weird data. So, it’s essential to know if a sensor value isn’t changing.

With Moli you’ll get a warning email if a sensor is stuck, and a note in your logbook. That means you can check that the data return to normal and be forewarned for your analysis.
