Alaska/Greenland GBO funding
Starting September 1, 2011 NSF agreed to fund operation of the Alaska/Greenland GBO for the next 5 years under the name:Ground-based Imager and Magnetometer Network for Auroral STudies (GIMNAST)
• UCB-SSL receives funding for site operations, data collection and recovery, maintenance and repairs• UCLA receives funding for magnetometer maintenance and potential repairs
• Use of GBO data collected after September 2011 should acknowledge Donovan/Frey, the Canadian Space Agency for logistic support of the GBO network, and NSF award 1004736 for GIMNAST

New software tools
• thm_gmag_stations provides information about GMAG similar to thm_asi_stations • map_themis_state_t96 and map_themis_state_south_t96 to map THEMIS spacecraft to northern and southern hemispheres
• thm_asi_merge_mosaic to merge all-sky images and make mosaic look “nicer” (based on thm_asi_create_mosaic by Jackel, Donovan, Frey, Spanswick)
