Abstract

We have developed the KASI Deep Rolling Imaging Fast Telescope (K-DRIFT) to optimally detect Low Surface Bright (LSB) structure and installed a testbed for K-DRIFT performance testing and verification at the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO). Achieving optimal LSB observations requires minimizing fluctuations in the night sky background value and obtaining high-quality data under stable conditions. For this reason, the remotely controlled K-DRIFT system demands continuous monitoring of the surrounding environment. We have equipped the K-DRIFT testbed with various devices for monitoring the observatory environment. This paper provides an overview of the environmental monitoring system and reports on the performance of the monitoring equipment.
