Abstract
The destruction process of chemical weapons requires a good organized system of analytical control of environment. An important part of this system is an air monitoring system. In the case of an accidental release the remote sensing equipment is the only device which can give information about the seize and the movement of the formed cloud. The remote sensing lidar system can be used to monitor a relatively large geographic area replacing a network of point sampling analysers. In Hungary an early warning monitor network has been working from 1993. A stationary (LRS-3) and a mobile (VTB-2) differential absorption remote sensing devices are working together with this system.The aim of our work to show the results achieved in the field of the construction and application of remote sensing.
