The OpenLidar initiative was started in 2015 by members of IEA Wind Task 32. Its goal is to encourage collaboration around wind lidar hardware and software by developing a modular wind lidar architecture and providing a framework for cooperation.
The opnLidar architecture and modules are documented at https://github.com/e-WindLidar/OpenLidarModuleDefinitions.
