Astronomical Instrumentation: Robotic Telescopes, Site Testing

Scientific paper

The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) project has undertaken a large program to select the final site for the telescope. Five candidate sites were selected in Chile, Mexico and Hawaii for testing, and a site testing station was erected on each mountain. The site testing station consists of an extensive suite of instruments that operate robotically on each of the candidate sites. The systems are all monitored and the data archived to a central server system. Testing began in April, 2003, and each site testing station was installed for at least three years. The project is now nearing completion, with the final site selection decision scheduled for mid-2009.
