Raymetrics has been in operation since 2002, making us probably the first atmospheric LIDAR company in the world. Back then, the only people using aerosol LIDARs were researchers. We therefore come from a background in LIDAR science - and to this day we maintain strong links with the academic community. Our key scientific advisor is Professor Alex Papagiannis from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), who was in 2015 elected President of the International Coordination Group for Laser Atmospheric Studies (ICLAS) - the most important atmospheric LIDAR organization in the world. Alex's protégé is Dr George Georgoussis, Raymetrics' founder and our current CEO.

Over the last 14 years we have developed a range of highly customizable products suitable for academic uses, commercial uses (aviation, mining, heavy industry), and operational uses (meteorology, enviromental). Our LIDARs are located all over the world, with systems in the USA, India, China, Africa, Brazil, Singapore, Malaysia, Germany, the UK and many more (see map). Over the years, the company has built up an extensive client list which includes such prestigious organizations as the Met Office (UK), European Space Agency (ESA), National Environment Agency (Singapore), Direccion Meteorologica de Chile, and the German Weather Service (DWD).
