Notes.

(a)

There can be several telescopes within one observatory used for observations of asteroids. Hence, we specify the particular telescope used during the Apophis campaign.

(b)

Longitude and latitude coordinates are given with respect to the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84). They can be verified using the Google Earth software, https://www.google.com/earth/. The last given digits are uncertain.

(c)

Different CCD binning modes were used for some observations obtained with this telescope. When binning was applied the pixel size increased to 2.16″.
