You Need an Observer Code to Use Webobs

Announcement: New Applications

We are excited to announce the launch of our new applications! We're opening up early access to our new applications for searching, downloading, and submitting photometric observations. You can now access these applications through these links:

We ask for your feedback in order to help us improve these applications. Please send feedback for the applications above to feedback@aavso.org. Note: please avoid duplicating submissions across the two submit applications.

An observer code is required to submit observations to the AAVSO. Our system has not found an observer code for you. It could be due to one of the following reasons:

  • You are not currently logged into the AAVSO web site. You must be logged in to use WebObs. This is so our system knows who you are and can give you credit for the observations you submit. Click here to login.
  • You are logged in, but our system does not have an observer code assigned to you. This can be because you do not have an observer code or because you have an observer code but it is not linked to your web site account.

Once this is taken care of, you'll never have to go through these steps again. If you have any questions feel free to contact us.
