Description

We give continuous night and day light measurements at all natural outdoor light levels by a network of low-cost lightmeters. Developed to start simple, global continuous high cadence monitoring of night sky brightness and artificial night sky brightening (light pollution) in 2009. The lightmeter network is a project of the Thüringer Landessternwarte, Tautenburg, Germany and the Kuffner-Sternwarte society at the Kuffner-Observatory, Vienna, Austria. It started as part of the Dark Skies Awareness cornerstone of the International Year of Astronomy.

Light Pollution Station Plots

This form lets you retrieve light pollution measurements by time and station; the interval of data points is typically 10 minutes, where each data point is an average over several measurements.

For advanced queries, use ADQL possibly via TAP, on the lightmeter.measurements table.
