Resumo
The WMO Global Atmospheric Watch (GAW) Aerosol Lidar Observation Network (GALION) was formed in
2008 as a collaboration of lidar networks, and includes the Asian Dust and Aerosol Lidar Observation
Network (AD-Net), the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET), the Latin American Lidar
Network (LALINET), the Micro Pulse Lidar Network (MPLNET), and lidar sites in the Network for the
Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC). The goal of GALION was to utilize a network
of networks approach to share information, best practices, develop frameworks and techniques
for quality data, and eventually provide an easier method of searching for and obtaining groundbased
lidar data globally. A brief overview of GALION and its network members will be provided, along
with a status update. We will provide an overview of the creation of the GALION data center, and
our efforts to develop interoperability between the individual lidar network data centers and the
WMO Observing Systems Capability Analysis and Review tool (OSCAR) to develop a database of lidar
network capabilities. The GALION data center provides a first ever ability to examine global and regional
coverage gaps and address coordinated site planning for the support of field campaigns, modeling
and forecasting, satellite validation, and various other scientific studies. We will also present crossnetwork
activities relevant to harmonizing the data products and quality across GALION, including
intercomparison campaigns and formal work projects. Finally, we will discuss future plans to provide
standard GALION data products and application support for air quality and volcanic plume monitoring,
and consideration of including ceilometer networks in GALION.
