The General Catalogue of Photometric Data (GCPD)

The Institute of Astronomy of the University of Lausanne (Switzerland) has been deeply involved in the collection of photometric data since 1970 and is one of the Institutes collaborating with the Strasbourg Data Center (CDS).
We have developed a large database containing photoelectric photometric data in many systems. We now provide a large WWW access to the data collections and references from

The General Catalogue of Photometric Data (GCPD).

The Database for Stars in Open Clusters (WEBDA)

Open clusters are one of the main research fields of the Institute and we have also developed a specialized collection of data called

The Database for Stars in Open Cluster (WEBDA)

A large access to data, maps, bibliography and archive data is provided throgh lists or forms. Each open cluster has its own page, from which the existing data may be retrieved.
