Description
We present seeing measurements from Mt. Holomon (Chalkidiki, Greece), a
possible site for the establishment of a new University of Thessaloniki
Observatory, using the Hartman - DIMM method. After two years of
systematic observations we present the first robust results and give a
first evaluation of the astronomical seeing characteristics, which are
very promising. In order to check our system and method of analysis we
have also taken similar seeing measurements at the Kryonerion
Astronomical Station of the National Observatory of Athens. The
Kryonerion measurements fully agree with previous, established, seeing
results taken there. This agreement makes us feel comfortable of the
credibility of our system.
