| DataStreams: | sgptsimovieC1.a1, sgptsicldmaskC1.a1, sgptsiskyimageC1.a1

| Description: | Birds were frequently in the the field-of-view and soiling the mirror, affecting the
visible sky image and resulting processed cloud fraction image. Bird deterant spikes were
installed on top of the camera housing and arm on 5/16 which prevented their perching on the
camera so that the impact on the sky image was reduced. But birds were still present
around the edges of the mirror until additional spikes were installed on top of the four
corners of the enclosure on 6/14. |
