This page links to the individual VLT instrument health check pages with image quality information. This information helps to assess how good the delivered image quality in the data is. Ideally it is limited by the seeing conditions during the time of observation, or, for instruments with AO, by the performance of the AO.

For a more detailed description see the general Image Quality page. For a discussion of differences between the seeing derived from VLT instruments and the seeing measured by the DIMM monitor see Sarazin et al., 2008, Messenger 132, p. 11.
