The Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) was an airborne scanning lidar developed at NASA Wallops Flight Facility (WFF). ATM measured surface elevation changes to map topography and was primarily used to survey glaciers and ice caps. It typically flew at an altitude of 400 to 800 meters and had a horizontal resolution of 10 to 20 centimeters. It operated at a wavelength of 532 nm.
