Rocket plume images photographed with the AFGL UV imager on a video system have been analyzed with a video digitizer and an MS-DOS* computer. The analysis consists of distortion-free rotation of the images to align the plume axis with the horizontal pixel direction, smoothing the images with appropriate image filters, plotting contours and brightness slices of the images, measuring the size from knowledge of the rocket's ephemeris, and correcting for atmospheric absorption. Similar analysis techniques will be presented for laboratory images showing the diffusion of an optically absorbing gas in air.
