Spectrophotometric catalogs and databases

An overview is given of different spectrophotometric catalogs, including a brief description of the applications of absolute spectrophotometry in evolutionary population synthesis. Observational data for different stars are given. A list of catalogs is presented, including those containing intrinsic energy distributions for stars of different temperatures and luminosities, spectrophotometric standards, extragalactic sources, and theoretically calculated spectra. A number of useful links and Internet resources are provided.
