A method of calculation of wind profiles and coefficients of vertical turbulent exchange in the lower atmosphere is presented. The method is based on meteorological observations and satellite images of smoke plumes from high altitude chimneys of industrial plants. The method is used in a model of estimation based on solutions of the equations of the Ekman's a boundary layer. An analysis of distribution of the smoke plume of a power plant is given for the city of Barnaul. The results of calculations of wind velocity components in the boundary layer of the atmosphere are presented. A possibility of using this approach for urban air pollution research is shown.
