Resumen:
A multi-wavelength scanning Raman lidar, being built at Lidar Division, CEILAP, UNIDEF (CITEDEF-CONICET) in the frame of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) collaboration is described. CTA is an initiative to build the next generation of ground-based instruments to collect very high energy gamma-ray radiation (> 10 GeV). The atmospheric conditions are of major interest to CTA, and lidars are requested to acquire atmospheric profiles fast, accurate, and in the line of sight of the event. In this work, main features designs of the system, advances in development, and future work are presented
