This study aimed to develop a methodology for estimating ionospheric conductance at auroral latitudes using data from a multi-wavelength photometer (427.8, 557.7, and 630.0 nm). An advantage of the approach is that the ionosphere is divided into layers and conductance is computed for each layer. Fro...
