Abstract The application of differential absorption lidar (DIAL) in air pollution measurements has become more common over the last two decades. Nevertheless, DIAL studies of the horizontal distribution of air pollution and concentration measurements of organic compounds are still quite rare. This paper presents results of two distinct measurement campaigns performed in the Czech Republic, where a mobile DIAL system was employed in order to collect information about the horizontal distribution of pollutant concentration. In the first campaign the concentration of toluol over a chemical plant in usti nad Labem (city in North Bohemia) was inv
