This tab sheet in the Settings dialog is used to enter some information about the observing site. This information is used for generating the MPCReport file. The geographic coordinates of the observing site are also used to correct for parallax when the position of an asteroid or comet is calculated by the software
这个标签被用于输入一些观测地点的相关信息。这些信息对生成MPC报告会有用。观测地点的地理坐标经常被用来校正软件计算出的小行星和彗星位置视差。

MPC Code: The MPC Observatory Code. If your observing site has no MPC Observatory Code yet, enter 'XXX' here. Upon accepting your observations, the MPC will assign an observatory code to your site.
MPC编号:MPC观测地编号。如果你的观测地还没有被MPC编号,请输入'XXX'。如果MPC接受了你的观测数据,会给你的观测地分配一个编号。
Longitude: The geographical longitude of your observing site. The value specified here should be accurate to 0.001°. Also, indicate if the value refers to a longitude East or West of Greenwich.
地理经度:你的观测地点的地理经度。 需要精确到0.001度。也需要说明是东经还是西经。
Latitude: The geographical latitude of your observing site. The value specified here should be accurate to 0.001°. Also, indicate if the value refers to a latitude in the northern or southern hemisphere.
地理纬度:你的观测地点的地理纬度。需要精确到0.001度。也需要说明是北纬还是南纬。
Height: The altitude of your observing site above the mean sea-level, in meters.
海拔:你的观测地点的海拔高度,单位是米。
Note: For new observatories (Observatory Code 'XXX'), the longitude, latitude and altitude will be included in the MPCReport file. The coordinates are specified with a precision of 0.1 arc second, and the altitude is given to the nearest full meter. If you want to submit less precise or more precise coordinates to the MPC, you must edit these data manually.
注:对于新的观测者(观测地编号为'XXX'),观测地的经度、纬度和海拔高度将包含在MPC的报告中。坐标要求达到0.1角秒,高度要求到整数米的精度。如果你打算提交更高或更低的坐标精度发往MPC,你必须手动编辑这些数据。
Note: Observatory code 247 is used for non-permanent observing sites. Using this code, the sofwtare will produce an MPCReport file that is consistent with the Roving Observer format defined by the MPC . In that format, two lines (one holding the position and magnitude of the observed object, and a second giving the longitude, latitude and altitude of the observing site) are given for each observation.
注:观测地编号247被用来表示非永久的观测地。使用这个编号,软件将建立一个符合MPC关于流动观测者要求的报告。在这种格式中,每个观测都有两行(一行是观测目标的位置和亮度,另一行是观测地点的经度,纬度和海拔高度)。
Contact: The contact details (contact person, postal address) for the observing program.
联系地址:有关观测者的详细联系方式(个人的通信地址)。
E-Mail: The e-mail address of the contact person.
电子信箱:个人的电子邮箱。
Note: Acknowledgements for observations received by the MPC will be directed to the e-mail address specified here.
注意:MPC的确认信将直接发送的这个邮箱。
Include Contact Details in MPCReport: Check here if the contact details and e-mail address specified above should be included in the MPCReport file. According to the MPC, the contact details need not to be given when no changes are required, so you may uncheck this box as long as you postal- and e-mail-addresses do not change.
包含这些联系信息在MPC报告中:如果你希望把以上关于个人联系方式及电子信箱的内容包含在MPC报告中,请勾选此项。在MPC报告中,个人的联系方式及邮箱并不需要每次都给出,除非它们发生了变化。
Note: The contact details are always included if a MPCReport is created for a new observatory (Observatory Code 'XXX').
注意:对于一个没有给MPC编号的新观测地点(观测地点编号是'XXX'),以上个人联系方式和邮箱将总是被包含在报告里的。
Observer: The names of the observer(s), specified as initials plus surname, with spaces separating each part of the name. If more than one name is given, the names should be separated by a comma and a blank, as shown in the screenshot above
观测者: 观测者的姓名,首字母大写,用空格隔离名字的各部分。如果有多个姓名,彼此间要用逗号和空格分隔,像上面的屏幕截图那样。
Measurer: The names of the measurer(s), specified as initials plus surname, with spaces separating each part of the name, as shown in the screenshot above. If more than one name is given, the names should be separated by a comma and a blank.
测量者:测量者的姓名,首字母大写,用空格隔离名字的各部分。像上面的屏幕截图那样。如果有多个姓名,彼此间要用逗号和空格分隔。
Telescope: The Telescope used for the observations.
望远镜:观测用的望远镜。
Identifier: The Telescope Identifier will be used in the new, proposed format for the MPCReport file to distiguish between several telescopes used at one site. At this time, the contents of this field will not be used by the software!
标识符:在新的MPC报告中,标识符用来标识同一观测地点的几台不同的望远镜。目前,软件还不能使用这个标识符!
Note: For details on how to specify the Observatory Details, please refer to the guide by the Minor Planet Canter at http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iau/info/ObsDetails.html.
