What shall we do with photometric data

2010 
According to our rough order of magnitude estimate there should be about one million CCD images contained in the Czech archives. However, it is difficult to reach them. Data are stored in several dozens of separated archives, mostly not accessible via internet. Typically, observers put into the public archives only their observing diary and their final results, but no raw data images. We are convinced that now is the time to make a change. We would like to establish common photometric archive containing raw CCD images, that is publicly available. Such an archive would have many advantages such as simpler data search and easier adaptation of the archive to bigger projects such as Virtual Observatory.
