In IWAA 2024, we presented an absolute distance meter (ADM) for long-range measurements, achieving uncertainties below 1 mm (k=1) over distances of up to 12 km. This instrument uses two laser wavelengths, one in the visible and the other in the infrared, to measure the difference in optical path length between them. This additional measured quantity corresponds to the accumulated effect of the...
