The AAVSO International Database has over 14.5 million visual, PEP, and CCD observations of variable stars dating back to its founding over 90 years ago. Over 6 thousand observers from all over the world have contributed data for over 6 thousand objects.

This is the largest and highest quality digital database of variable star observations available. All our data go through a strict quality control analysis ("validation"), a procedure that insures the data are as error free as possible.
