Sandia Research and others have set up a North American Video All-sky
Camera Network to record the entry of meteorite dropping fireballs
with the hope of recovery of a meteorite for scientific research.
A map of the current system can be found here: http://allsky.ca/

Several gaps still exist, so if you can fill in the gaps and
are willing to devote the time and effort into this you can contact
Dr. Richard E. Spalding at Sandia to see if he has the funds to
supply you with a patrol camera. His email address is:
respald at sandia.gov
You must supply your own PC Computer for this project. Dr. Spalding
is a busy fellow so don't contact him unless your an experienced
meteor observer, have some electronics experiance and will devote the
effort and time in operating such a patrol camera. Provide your
details to Dr. Spalding to see if he will put you on the list.
