Abstract

Networked projects e.g. Gamma-Ray Burst follow up optical observationsrequire dense worldwide coverage. We are investigating potentially interesting sites forobservatories in Central Asia where coverage by observatories is still poor. One of themost important parameter of a site is a number of clear night hours. We present firstresults of direct parameter measurements gathered with weather stations and our ownobservations in different sites of Mongolia.
