Numerous studies have been performed to better understand the behavior of wake vortices with re-gards to aircraft characteristics and weather conditionsover the pastten years. These studies have led to the de-velopment of the aircraft RECATegorization (RECAT) programs in Europe and in USA. Its phase one focused on redefining distance separation matrix with six static aircraft wake turbulence categories instead of three with the current Intational Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) regulations. In Europe, the RECAT-EU regula-tion is now entering under operational implementation atseveral key airports. As proven by several research projects in the past, LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) sensors are considered as the ground truth wake vortex measurements for assessing the safety impact of a new wake turbulence regulation at an airport in quan-tifying the risks given the local specificities. LIDARs can also be used to perform risk monitoring after the im-plementation. In this paper, the principle to measure wake vortices with scanning coherent Doppler LIDARs is described as well as its dedicated post-processing. Finally the use of WINDCUBELIDAR based solution for sup-porting the implementation of new wake turbulenceregulation is described along with satisfyingresults that have permitted the monitoring of the wake vortex encounter risk after the implementation of a new wake turbulence regulation.
