Abstract
The Swift/UVOT raw data archive is part of the official Swift data archive which is distributed to the scientific community by the ASDC as one of the official mirrors. ASDC has the duty of the realization of the XRT “serendipitous” and “deep” survey, so in 2006 was planned the development of an UVOT image data processing procedure whose goal was to produce optical/UV counterpart fluxes for the XRT sources. Moreover the procedure should support the Swift ToO request within the Blazar keyproject (Giommi, P., Massaro, E., Tosti, G.). A specific procedure has been developed to process Swift/UVOT images and to achieve either the ToO target flux extraction or the blind search of the brightest objects in the field. We describe the actual version of this procedure and morever we will introduce the processing environment.
