LINEAR
Skyplots
The LINEAR skyplots represent areas of the sky in which LINEAR performed asteroid search and follow-up observing during the indicated monthly lunar dark period. In each plot, each box represents a field that was searched for asteroids. Each field is revisited several times during the course of a night with a single image frame collected on each revisit. At the end of the night, the resulting frame set is processed to detect moving asteroids.
