| Abstract | A scanning laser Doppler velocimeter (SLDV) was installed at John F. Kennedy (JFK) International Airport and was operated for six months collecting data on vortices generated by landing aircraft. A description of the SLDV system, a summary of the JFK test operations, an analysis of selected portions of the data, and recommendations for improvements to the SLDV are presented. The vortex information, including track and velocity data, on over 1,600 aircraft landings is contained in the appendices. |
