SkyMapper: A Global, Real-Time Sky-Mapping Network Linking Telescopes and All-Sky Cameras for Distributed, Multi-Messenger Astronomy
To the point
SkyMapper is a global, real-time network that links telescopes and all-sky cameras via a distributed platform to enable remote control, rapid data collection, and live visualization for continuous sky mapping, supports time-domain and multi-messenger astronomy, and aims to grow to thousands of instruments with amateur and student participation, guided by Dr. Franck Marchis and Dr. Lauren Sgro.
