Aurora stereoscopic observation for the monochromatic regime has been carried out in Iceland in November and December, 1991. A distance between two observation sites, Husafell and Efri-Brunna, is about 90km in the magnetic meridian plane. The aim is to obtain stereo image data with longer baseline for the detailed study of inverse algorithm and to clarify three-dimensional luminous structures of aurora at typical wavelengths. This paper gives a brief description of the observation and some provisional results of data analysis.
