Calculation of pollarization correction factors for atmospheric lidar system, developed by Volker Freudenthaler (LMU).

# Theory
The theoretical basis of the script is described in detail in :

# Use
To run the script you need to:

1. Create a file describing your system settings and parameters. You can find an example file in the "system_settings"
   folder. Give a descriptive name and save it in the "system_settings" folder.

2. Open the "lidar_correction_ghk.py" file, and set the variable InputFile to the filename you chose in step 1.

3. Run "python lidar_correction_ghk.py"
