All Sky Camera
The images are from an all sky camera based on a Raspberry Pi and HQ camera mounted on the roof of the trailer at Lockwood
The Live View button shows what the camera seeing roughly every minute. The Two Week Image Archive shows images for the past 2 weeks. Star trails, a Keogram* and time lapse from the previous night are also shown in the archive.
North is at top of the image (12 o’clock), West is to the right (3 o’clock), and East is to the left (9 o’clock).
The time lapse video, startrails, and keogram are updated around 7AM for the previous night. If a startrail image just shows a single shot, that means all of the images were too bright (typically if there is a full moon).
Depending on your browser configuration, you may have to download the time lapse before you can play it.
Images and video are stored for 2 weeks
*A Keogram is an image giving a quick view of the night activity. It was originally invented to study the aurora borealis. For each image taken during the night, a central vertical column 1 pixel wide is extracted and the columns are then stitched together from left to right. North is at the top of the Keogram.

For each image taken during the night, a central vertical column 1 pixel wide is extracted. All these columns are then stitched together from left to right. This results in a timeline that reads from dusk to dawn. North is at the top of the Keogram.
