For high-range cloud height detection.

The Vaisala Ceilometer CL51 is designed to measure high-range cirrus cloud heights without surpassing the low and middle layer clouds, or vertical visibility in harsh conditions.  It´s backscatter profiling over full range is up to 15 km (49,200 ft).

The CL51 employs a pulsed diode laser LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) technology, where short, powerful laser pulses are sent out in a vertical or near-vertical direction. The reflection of light (backscatter) caused by clouds, precipitation or other obscuration is analyzed and used to determine the cloud base height.
