LIDAR DXB1 – 12L IGE (In-Ground Effect) Operational since Aug. 2013 Alignment of the scan plane: Not perpendicular to the 12L glide scope but with an angle of 10.52̊ to that plane Aircraft on glide scope is estimated to be at: Altitude (above 12L threshold) 238 ft based on 3 ̊ glide scope Ground Range from DXB1: 709 m
LIDAR DXB2 – 30L/30R OGE (Out-Ground Effect) Operational since Nov. 2013 Alignment of the scan plane: The azimuth alignment is perpendicular to the 30 L glide scope Aircraft on glide scope is estimated to be at: Altitude (above 30L threshold) 1101 ft based on 3 ̊ glide scope Ground Range from DXB2: 718 m
LIDAR DXB3 – 30L IGE (In-Ground Effect) Operational since Jul. 2014 Alignment of the scan plane: The azimuth alignment is not perpendicular to the 30 L glide scope but with an angle of approx. 6 ̊ from the perpendicular Aircraft on glide scope is estimated to be at: Altitude (above 30L threshold) 256 ft based on 3 ̊ glide scope Ground Range from DXB3: 588 m
