Aerodynamic tests of a cable line sample were performed for the research group of Dr. Maciej Dutkiewicz from the Department of Building Construction, University of Bydgoszcz. Apart from the traditional sampling by Pitot-Static probe and Constant Temperature Anemometry the campaign featured optical measurements. The unique approach revealed 3D coordinates of the vibrating sample thanks to the digital image correlation technique deployed. The GOM Pontos 12M system was operated by Dr. Jan Šplíchal.
