abstrakt:
Nowadays, we are living in a revolution of astronomical surveys. Thanks to these ground-based and orbiting telescopes, millions of observations of hundreds of thousands of asteroids in various photometric filters are available. The scientific community must be prepared to analyze and benefit as much as possible from this amount of data. Furthermore, there is an exciting possibility to combine specific observations carried out by the astronomer with the data from surveys (usually sporadic).

The main objective of this work is to develop tools for readout, processing, and analyzing large volumes of data. In addition, we will determine phase curves for hundreds of thousands of asteroids in various bands.

In this work, we illustrate the usefulness of processing and analyzing large databases that we find nowadays. Moreover, we developed tools and tested them using observations from different surveys. Hence, we anticipate the release of data from the large observational projects coming up in the coming decades, with the methodology already prepared, verified, and refined.
