Observation Scheduling

C2A includes a tool that allows you to put together an observation schedule, that is to say a list of observations that will be performed one after the other and start at a given time during the night. This is a different tool from the Observation Planning tool which has the goal to identify objects that meet specific criteria for observation. The section How do you Schedule Observations? describes step by step how to use this tool.

The screen shot below shows the Observation Scheduling tool. To use the tool, you must first add objects to the observation schedule either by using the mouse right button when identifying an object in a map, or by using the appropriate button in the Observation Planning tool. You can also use the possibility to add manually an object directly within the Observation Scheduling tool.
