4th Dark-Sky European Symposium, Paris, September 24-25, 2004
Conclusion and perspectives
nAgreement between the Cinzano & al. night sky brightness atlas and the field situation (height must be accounted for) ; fair homogeneity of the field situation within each proposed pollution level (white, red,…,grey).
nIn a given location, there is not much to expect from the time of the year, and quite nothing from the hour in the night.
nMeteorological conditions are a key feature, but sky transparency exhibit an asymptotic value according to the pollution levels defined by Cinzano & al.
nDigital data may lead to quantitative values for the night sky brightness (to come).
nKeeping a same data acquisition procedure give access to the evolution with time of light pollution (to come).
