A microthermal seeing measurement device has been developed in-house to measure the temperature structure function D-T(r, h) and the air temperature T-air(h). A pressure sensor, located adjacent to it, measures the average barometric pressure P(h). From the data measured, the temperature structure coefficient C-T(2)(r, h) and the refractive index structure constant C-T(2)(h) are computed for the five equidistant microthermal seeing layers in the 3-15 m range in the surface layers. A statistical analysis is performed on the local coherence length r(o(loc))(h(1), h(2)). Corresponding values of the atmospheric seeing epsilon((loc))(h(1), h(2)) for all 10 microthermal seeing slabs is also computed and plotted, and the data are logged in real time. Because the characterization of the three sites is under way and the best site for the National Large Solar Telescope facility is yet to be determined, in this paper I discuss the preliminary results obtained from the Hanle site. A summary of the first results is as follows: epsilon((loc)) (3 m, 6 m) = 0.663 arcsec, epsilon((loc)) (6 m, 9 m) = 0.465 arcsec, epsilon((loc)) (9 m, 12 m) = 0.363 arcsec and epsilon((loc)) (12 m, 15 m) = 0.315 arcsec.
