The Use of DMSP Digital Data for Auroral Measurements.

Using measurements of aurora made by ground and aircraft based photometers and correlated in space and time with DMSP observations, two DMSP night time sensors have been calibrated. A procedure has been developed for computer reduction and analysis of the calibrated DMSP digital tape data. (Author)
