An attempt is made to correlate ATS 5 plasma data with all-sky photographic data taken at Thompson and Gillam, Manitoba. The fields of view of the Canadian stations cover the projected field line position of the satellite. Trapped electron fluxes at the satellite and the simultaneously measured auroral activity near the projected foot of the satellite field line were compared for several days of varying substorm activity with all-sky camera data, which was in the form of time-varying luminosity plots. The observed auroral intensification coincident with plasma injection shows that on a broad scale the auroras are correlated well with the magnetospheric trapped plasma; however, there is a lack of detailed correlation between the fine structure of the trapped plasma fluxes and the small scale auroral features.
