Measurement of Spray Drift with a Specifically Designed Lidar System [PDF]
Sensors, 2016 Field measurements of spray drift are usually carried out by passive collectors and tracers. However, these methods are labour- and time-intensive and only provide point- and time-integrated measurements.

An Interactive Spray Drift Simulator [PDF]
2010 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, June 20 - June 23, 2010, 2010 The off target movement of pesticides, known as spray drift, results in a reduction in application rates, damage to non-target organisms, and environmental concerns. Much of this drift can be eliminated if its prevalence is understood and best management
