Extracted sources from the Bochum Galactic Disk Survey. We provide
mean photometry in U, B, V, z, r, and i bands. Note that sources in
different bands are not matched. Also, sources sitting in the regions
imaged in multiple fields have not been matched even within one band.
In i and r, BGDS light curves are available. See related services for
details.
The Bochum Galactic Disk Survey is an ongoing project to monitor the
stellar content of the Galactic disk in a 6 degree wide stripe
centered on the Galactic plane. The data has been recorded since
mid-2010 in Sloan r and i simultaneously with the RoBoTT Telecsope at
the Universitaetssternwarte Bochum near Cerro Armazones in the Chilean
Atacama desert. It contains measurements of about 2x10^7 stars over
more than seven years. Additionally, intermittent measurements in
Johnson UVB and Sloan z have been recorded as well.
This service exposes the light curves of stars produced by the Bochum
Galactic Disk Survey; several million light curves are provided in the
SDSS i and r bands. The lightcurves are published per-band and are
also available through obscore.

Description:
The Kepler satellite has observed the Galactic center in a campaign
lasting from April until the end of June 2016 (K2/C9). The main
objective of the 99 hours for the microlensing program 097.C-0261(A)
using the ESO VLT Survey Telescope (VST) was to monitor the superstamp
(i.e., the actually downloaded region of K2/C9) in service mode for
improving the event coverage and securing some color-information. Due
to weather conditions, the majority of images were taken in the red
band. These are part of the present release.
The exact pointing strategy was adjusted to cover the superstamp with
6 pointings and to contain as many microlensing events from earlier
seasons as possible. In addition, a two-point dither was requested to
reduce the impact of bad pixels and detector gaps. Consequently, some
events were getting more coverage and have been observed with
different CCDs. The large footprint of roughly 1 square degree and the
complementary weather conditions at Cerro Paranal have lead to the
coverage of 147 events (this resource's events table), but ~60 of
those were already at baseline.
