There is still a lot to do...

• Calibrate video cameras to get magnitude of moving object
• Improve capabilities of automatic meteor detection software (e.g. Sirko Molau's MetRec)
• Digitize Perseid 1997 data (15 % done)
• Relate visual magnitude to radar echo strength, taking into account the angle between meteor and radar beam
• Find out whether radiant determination is accurate enough to derive info on ejection process on comet (cooperation with Laurent Jorda, MPAE)
