Data Set Overview : This data set contains photometric lightcurves of near-earth asteroids obtained by Petr Pravec and his collaborators at Ondrejov Observatory. Lightcurves for 42 asteroids are included. These asteroids were included based on a slightly wider criterion for a NEA: q < 1.33 AU (rather than the standard definition of q < 1.3 AU). As a result, some asteroids may be included which other researchers would classify as Mars-crossers. Parameters : The lightcurve files contain columns for light-corrected UTC, Modified Julian Date, and magnitude. The type of magnitude is specified in the index file. Each lightcurve file contains all the lightcurves for one asteroid, and the number or provisional designation is used as the filename. The index file has one line per lightcurve and gives the filename, the starting record and number of records in the file for the lightcurve in question, the asteroid number or designation, the starting and ending time of the lightcurve, the color band (lower case for relative, upper case for absolute scale), the phase to which the magnitudes have been corrected, and the minimum and maximum errors (or the mean error if the two entries are the same).
