摘要
Low visibility events detected in the city of Milan during six consecutive winter months are analyzed in order to compare optical attenuation measurements by two different instruments, i.e. a 319 m laser link operating at 785 nm and a visibility sensor. We show that the visibility sensor is a valuable support to estimate link attenuation in the cases when precipitation is absent or there is rain, provided that 1-sample/s raw data are averaged in time. On the other side, in the case of snowfall (that can produce high attenuation values), the agreement between the two sensors is poor.
