Scientific paper

The Pitt Automated Airglow Observatory, whose main optical instruments are a field-widened Fabry-Perot interferometer and a tilting filter photometer, is described. The system guides the observatory operations and offers real-time evaluation of system performance relative to establised norms for the purpose of taking corrective action when required and/or notifying the home base of the problem areas. The optical instrumentation, electronic control system, and operating procedures are detailed. Examples are given of data obtained from such an observatory recently located at Millstone Hill, Massachusetts.
