Abstract
Introduction. Modern observations of meteors have to be oriented onto both automation of the observational process and processing of the observational data. The final aim of the meteor observation is in presence of their physical and kinematical characteristics for the scientific community, including photometrical characteristics, and also the elements of their heliocentric orbits.
Methods. As a rule, the meteor observations were carrying out not centralized, and randomly. In the modern scientific world this process is put onto pipeline. But we have to note at this how we should organize the meteor observations, and the presentation of their processing. At the present, there are a range of methods allowing processing the observational results with more or less efficiency, and to join results onto databases.
Results.In our case we propose to consider a case of multi-cameras composition for organization of quantitative observations with the aim of the data accumulation, and also for understanding meteor physics, in part, the processes of heating, its phase transfers, and final vaporization.
Conclusions. The use of automatic systems for the meteor observations, in prospects automatic data processing will allow to check a range of hypotheses for the meteor physics theory, which could by an important step for understanding of the Solar System origin.
Key words
meteor, meteor double-station observations, video-observations, observational devices, accumulating and saving the data, automation of observation process.
