This makes it really easy to plan the next few targets you are going to observe.

You can upload any number of targets and plot their airmass tracks simultaneously.

SDSS ( gri composite), 2MASS (J, H, or K), or DSS (blue, red, or infrared) images can be easily downloaded with a click to be used as finding charts.

If you turn tracking on, you can see the exact airmass and altitude of your target for any time in the night.

The airmass charts had twilight times and moon tracks clearly marked.

Most major observatories are already built into the App, so you have access to not only the LST, UT, sunrise/sunset times but also to the observatories’ website from within the App.Obviously, all of this was well organized and easy to access. All of them, and many other functionalities, were right there in the iObserve window. There was no need to open separate windows for my IDL-based airmass charts, for a webpage with SDSS finding charts, or for a webpage with my target list(s). My favorite part about iObserve was that it provided a platform aggregates (almost) all the information I wanted about my targets.

It is time to look at iObserve again since Cédric told us about it in September, I have used the App for three separate observing runs.
