Extinction and standardization corrections to infrared measurements
are of the utmost importance in astronomy. Various views on these
concepts and problems of implementation in infrared photometry are
discussed thoroughly and recommendations are presented. Among these
are: the adoption of narrower broad-band "Johnson" filters that are
better centered in the atmospheric water windows than is currently
the case; the measurements of atmospheric water vapor content
concurrent with the astronomical measurements; the use of
appropriate atmospheric models to treat the extinction adequately;
and the publication of complete details of the systemic passbands
and their transformability to other systems. To conclude the
volume, R. Bell summarizes and comments on the contributions to the
symposium, and the editor adds a concluding postscript on
post-meeting developments and perspectives.
