Image Processing of All Sky Imager Using Matlab

This book presents the design of an all-sky imager image processing using MATLAB programming language. The designed programs are capable to process captured all-sky images of upper atmospheric airglows and low-latitude auroras, and applying image processing algorithms to extract useful information, correct distortions and to eliminate background noise. This design incorporates novel astronomical image processing routines designed in Mat-lab programming language. The processed images are then geo-located on a map of the India for display covering range of imager. This system will be used to study small-scale plasma bubbles and airglows over the region and to characterize the dynamics of charged particles in the ionosphere.
