The Lightmeter is a low cost instrument for global continuous monitoring of artificial night sky brightening (light pollution). The first version was developed for the International Year of Astronomy 2009.

Light pollution ...

... is the introduction by humans, directly or indirectly, of artificial light into the environment. *

... is the human-caused alteration of outdoor light levels from those occurring naturally. **

7 years of monthly light medians from 2012 to 2018 for clear, moonless astronomical night conditions above the Dürrenstein Wilderness (red and green) measured at the Legstein hut (1456m) light monitoring station compared to a model of milky-way and zodical light (cyan). The indicated intervals ("error bars") show the 1-sigma variations of measurements and models for the respectice monthly samples. G. Wuchterl

A lightning strike on a Lightmeter. While Lightmeters routinely record lightning at day and night, this one came too close. The Kanzelhöhe-Lightmeter-Station, at_KSO_1 is the number L19 of the original International Year of Astronomy 2009 prototype-series. It recorded from August 2009 to June 2017, over eight years and outlived a couple of control-computers. The PCDuino used recently was also destroyed by the lightning near June 22th 2017

The total lunar eclipse of September 28th 2015 as seen by the Tautenburg lightmeters. Horizontal illuminance is shown to drop to the mLux levels of a moonless sky.
Lightmeter detection of the Aurora in northern Germany seen by many observers on 2015-03-18. A proxy for the horizontal illuminance is show as function of time [UTC]. The red and blue curves are for the two lightmeters with a raw calibration. The entire night is shown in the range below 3 mlx. The Auroral signal is visible as a triangular bump near 23:00 UTC.

Nighttime total radiation at the Kepler observatory in Linz (Austria) measured under the exceptionally cloudy conditions from January to July 2013 - most overcast nights since the beginning of the records.
Comparison of the clear moonless sky medians of total radiation (divide numbers by 10 for a proxy of horizontal illuminance) measured in 2012 and 2013 by the stations of the Vienna Lightmeter Network.
