Zero Point Monitoring

One of the functionalities of the Opihi telescope is to record and monitor the atmospheric conditions over time. This functionality is similar to the CFHT SkyProbe.

We record the filter zero point magnitudes of images taken by Opihi over time. (We store the data in a database, see Monitor Database.) Similar to the CFHT SkyProbe, we also present the zero points measured throughout the night on a monitoring webpage of sorts.
