Wow -- three All-Sky camera captures of the same event! Triangulation
should be pretty accurate for this fall (assuming it produced
meteorites).
Notice the high-quality of the all-sky camera images compared to those
we typically see from U.S. stations... much easier to get good
astrometric
positions of the bolide track when you have hundreds of reference stars!
