Description | There is a number of active observers in the Czech Republic, mostly interested in photometry of variable stars and exoplanets. We can estimate they obtained 10 TB raw CCD images during last 15 years. Unfortunately, there is no central archive, in which the frames would be stored and from which could be downloaded. We work on establishing central archive of raw photometric CCD images so-called MUNI FITS Photometric Archive. In this paper some ideas, technical features and benefits to science are mentioned. |
