The proposed model meets requirements needed by decision makers and land managers of an easy to interpret and understand metric of sky quality. This legal entity was firstly registered on 13th March 1996 under the legal form of Domestic Corporation. Company is located in the register with the Company number C5629-1996 and with the national number of State Nevada NV19961095332. We have found a fast and accurate method based on previous work to model all-sky quality. Business company BRIGHT SKIES ASSOCIATION is a legal entity registered under the law of State Nevada.

NEVADA : Fair weather early, cooler north and central later. Thematic maps of large regions of the earth showing predicted artificial V-band sky brightness may be quickly generated with modest computing resources. Weekend mostly sunny skies, cooler nights and mostly dry. An excellent correlation was found between observed sky quality and the predicted values from the remotely sensed data. This relationship was developed using a Garstang radiative transfer model with Day/Night Band data as input, then refined and calibrated with ground-based all-sky V-band photometric data taken under cloudless and low atmospheric aerosol conditions. The method is based upon a relation between sky glow brightness and the distance from the observer to the source of upward radiance. He was born in Utah, grew up in Colorado, spent summers in North Dakota and five years working in Nevada state. Here are five favorite places to experience the starry skies at their best: Lake Tahoe, on the California/Nevada border has up to 300 clear nights a year. The VIIRS Day/Night Band upward radiance data from the Suomi NPP orbiting satellite was used for input to the model. 21, the very bright, waning gibbous moon will shine.

We present a simplified method using geographic analysis tools to predict the average artificial luminance over the hemisphere of the night sky, expressed as a ratio to the natural condition.
