IACO 2009-10
National Project
During 2009, 622 Light Pollutionmeasures were performed on 45 provinces.
During 2010, 91 new measureswhere performed.

“The Road Runner System”What is and which is the purpose?
It is a portable, lightweight, inexpensiveand quick system, which allowsmeasurement of light pollution from anylocation and immediate viewing of thedata captured by the system.

Finished the measurement, the software generates two types of files:
CSV File
KML File for Google Earth
File Name Format: “DDMMYYYY_index”
