New user question about the "colored lines" on Event Prediction screen


steven ho
 

I am gonna try to capture the "Zelinda" occultation tonight (2023-04-27 00:39:54). My location on the attached screenshot is the yellow circle to the left of the "N" in New York.

Can someone point me to documentation that explains these lines. Even a quick description?of my chances for this event?would be very helpful.

I will be trying the Dynamene event the following day also.

thanks
Steve H


 

Hi Steven,

Are you running Windows and are you using the OccultWatcher Desktop client?

The red line is the 1-sigma zone, blue is the edge. Your position is more than 3 sigma away and the chances are not great for that location.

If you get the events inside OW Desktop, it will show you probablities and a lot more information.

Hristo.

In theory your chances are small, but there may be a path shift in your direction. (You never can tell) So your observation would be provide a constraint.? Negative observations are important.? There is an observer on the orange line i see.

Best of luck, Tim
