This data collection is based on the work of several organizations and their as well as other volunteers and last but not least on the work of all that many observers doing and reporting their observations.
The main source of occultation observation reports is Euraster (www.euraster.net).
Euraster is the primary European Centre for collecting and validating occultation reports beside the EAON
and IOTA / IOTA-ES centres. Credits:
- Euraster : European Asteroidal Occultation Results (E. Frappa)
- EAON : European Asteroidal Occultation Network (R. Dusser, R. Boninsegna, J. Schwaenen, G Regheere et al.)
- IOTA : International Occultation Timing Association. (J. Manek et al.)
- IOTA-ES : International Occultation Timing Association - European Section. (H.-J. Bode et al.)
- Light curve data were extracted from a list
compiled and maintained by Alan W. Harris (SSI) and Brian D. Warner (Palmer Divide Observatory), which is based on the
Asteroids II machine readable data base: March 1988 floppy disk version by C.-I. Lagerkvist, A. W. Harris and V. Zappala.
- Diameter data come from the "Asteroid Diameter" File out of the Occult Software. Credit: Dave Herald, Canberra, Australia.
