What is this for?

This dashboard was built so that I have some simple indicator of what is happening in our upper atmosphere with respect to Aurora. As I am an avid photographer of the sky, I like having a tool that I can check when I'm on the go.

Our Sources

Data Sources come from both Canadian and US Federally funded, or University driven public resources. Display on this page is provided merely as a service, and I hope that you do your part to support the research and funding needs of these institutions.

If you have questions about the dashboard, please contact Greg at WesternLight.ca for information.

What if something is broken!

The page is formatted specfically to be friendly on mobile devices with all the tools I would normally check in one place. If you find it handy, share it around - though there are no guarantees it will be live forever...

Sources do break and change from time to time. Drop me an email and I'll do my best. If you've seen a tool or widget that looks like it belongs here - feel free to forward it to me!
