(meteorobs) Meteor counting time periods for Draconid potentialoutbur

[Michel Vandeputte]

Hi Karl

I'll work with one - minute intervals; as during the Leonid returns (and 
Geminid returns)
This is high resolution data and after the action you can do what you want 
with analysing the data (2, 5 or 10'  ZHR analyses).

Good luck in the Provence!

Michel
