| ARA's scientific
expertise is principally in the fields of airborne atmospheric science and airborne remote sensing
. However, ARA has the experience and capability to carry out high quality, state-of-the-art research in almost any
branch of airborne science. Some typical areas are: |
- Measurement of atmospheric parameters, including turbulence, aerosols, particles and radiation
- Airborne air quality / air pollution measurements, including airborne gas-chromatography (with MetAir)
- Airborne remote sensing, including micro-wave sensors, multi- and hyperspectral scanners, laser scanners
- Spatial information and digital image processing
- Instrumentation integration in airborne platforms, including certification
- Aeronautical design and aircraft modification (special emphasis on composites)
|
In addition to the practical tasks of data acquisition, ARA also offers consulting services in the environmental sciences, particularly remote sensing and spatial information; meteorology and pollution; vegetation health, soil moisture and salinity.
ARA operates from its modern operations base at Parafield Airport, which includes hangar, workshop and office facilities.
