• Update the census of telescopes and their instruments to help assessing the needs of the observatories and Spanish astronomical community.
• Preparation of scientific exploitation and technological return reports, including the use of new technologies.
• Promote access to public data from the observatories, either through the Spanish Virtual Observatory or through specific archives of the observatories.
