Cherenkov telescope experiments, such as H.E.S.S., have been very successful in astronomical observations in the very-high-energy (VHE; E $>$ 100 GeV) regime. As an integral part of the detector, such experiments use Earths atmosphere as a calorimeter. For the calibration and energy determination, a standard model atmosphere is assumed. Deviations of the real atmosphere from the model may therefore lead to an energy misreconstruction of primary gamma rays. To guarantee satisfactory data quality with respect to difficult atmospheric conditions, several atmospheric data quality criteria are implemented in the H.E.S.S. software. These quantities are sensitive to clouds and aerosols. Here, the Cherenkov transparency coefficient will be presented. It is a new monitoring quantity that is able to measure long-term changes in the atmospheric transparency. The Cherenkov transparency coefficient derives exclusively from Cherenkov data and is quite hardware-independent. Furthermore, its positive correlation with independent satellite measurements, performed by the Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR), will be presented.

Background: All-in-one station-based health monitoring devices are implemented in elder homes in Hong Kong to support the monitoring of vital signs of the elderly. During a pilot study, it was discovered that the systolic blood pressure was incorrect
ly measured during multiple weeks. A real-time solution was needed to identify future data quality issues as soon as possible. Methods: Control charts are an effective tool for real-time monitoring and signaling issues (changes) in data. In this study, as in other healthcare applications, many observations are missing. Few methods are available for monitoring data with missing observations. A data quality monitoring method is developed to signal issues with the accuracy of the collected data quickly. This method has the ability to deal with missing observations. A Hotellings T-squared control chart is selected as the basis for our proposed method. Findings: The proposed method is retrospectively validated on a case study with a known measurement error in the systolic blood pressure measurements. The method is able to adequately detect this data quality problem. The proposed method was integrated into a personalized telehealth monitoring system and prospectively implemented in a second case study. It was found that the proposed scheme supports the control of data quality. Conclusions: Data quality is an important issue and control charts are useful for real-time monitoring of data quality. However, these charts must be adjusted to account for missing data that often occur in healthcare context.
The quality of the incoming experimental data has a significant importance for both analysis and running the experiment. The main point of the Baikal-GVD DQM system is to monitor the status of the detector and obtained data on the run-by-run based an
alysis. It should be fast enough to be able to provide analysis results to detector shifter and for participation in the global multi-messaging system.
The main purpose of the Baikal-GVD Data Quality Monitoring (DQM) system is to monitor the status of the detector and collected data. The system estimates quality of the recorded signals and performs the data validation. The DQM system is integrated w
ith the Baikal-GVDs unified software framework (BARS) and operates in quasi-online manner. This allows us to react promptly and effectively to the changes in the telescope conditions.
Many atmospheric and climatic criteria have to be taken into account for the selection of a suitable site for the next generation of imaging air-shower Cherenkov telescopes, the Cherenkov Telescope Array CTA. Such data are not available with sufficie
nt precision, thus a comparison of the proposed sites and final decision based on a comprehensive characterization is impossible. Identical cross-calibrated instruments have been developed which allow for precise comparison between sites, the cross-validation of existing data, and the ground-validation of satellite data. The site characterization work package of the CTA consortium opted to construct and deploy 9 copies of an autonomous multi-purpose weather sensor, incorporating an infrared cloud sensor, a newly developed sensor for measuring the light of the night sky, and an All-Sky-Camera, the whole referred to as Autonomous Tool for Measuring Observatory Site COnditions PrEcisely (ATMOSCOPE). We present here the hardware that was combined into the ATMOSCOPE and characterize its performance.
The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) is a system of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) located in the Khomas Highland in Namibia. It measures cosmic gamma rays of very high energies (VHE; >100 GeV) using the Earths atmosphere
as a calorimeter. The H.E.S.S. Array entered Phase II in September 2012 with the inauguration of a fifth telescope that is larger and more complex than the other four. This paper will give an overview of the current H.E.S.S. central data acquisition (DAQ) system with particular emphasis on the upgrades made to integrate the fifth telescope into the array. At first, the various requirements for the central DAQ are discussed then the general design principles employed to fulfil these requirements are described. Finally, the performance, stability and reliability of the H.E.S.S. central DAQ are presented. One of the major accomplishments is that less than 0.8% of observation time has been lost due to central DAQ problems since 2009.
