Hourly, throughout every day, a new movie is created using the previous
28 hours worth of images.
If you're wanting to see a recent event, drag the playback
bar about 2/3's the way across the screen.
At 6 frames per second, from images stored every minute, the movie is just under
5 minutes long.

This live webcam view is captured from near Massachusetts Ave and Rowan Road in
New Port Richey, Florida.
February 2010 Update: We still have not had a chance to put the new enclosure up,
with Dave's job scheduling and weather interfering with the several attempts made,
it is still not done. Gonna try to get this done before it warms back up,
and we'll get that new enclosure up and update the day and night "what is on the
horizon" photos. Right now, dead center of the view is looking towards the Pasco
Govt center on Little Road, far right being Starkey Park, far left being over the
start of the Regency park area. The Winter view will always be more north,
and the summer view will be south to keep the sunrise out of the camera all
day.
Our sky tower webcam is mounted 70ft above the ground (88ft above sea level) on
the broadband tower behind our building and shows an incredible view of the West
Pasco skyline. The camera's wide angle view captures from due East of our
location (approximately Starkey Park) to Southeast (approximately Longleaf and
Trinity areas). You can view a detailed
map showing the exact
viewing area of the camera. Finally, the 28 hour
timelapse link will play for you the past day as a 5 minute movie at 6 minutes
per second.
This image is captured with a
StarDot NetCam XL IP camera
Model: NetCam XL 1.3 megapixel with a 1/2 inch Sony CCD
