Abstract

We present the scheme and preliminary results of a broadband photometric survey of
zenith sky at latitude (29.4 deg) of Nainital. The aim of the survey is to generate fainter
standard stars in the 30 arcmin strip of the zenith sky. This data can be used for a wide vari-
ety of astronomical topics as well as technical characterization of telescope and instruments.
This limited zenith sky survey is being done at broad-band U,B,V,R and I lters using
1kХ1k CCD mounted with the 104-cm telescope, the work involves observation-calibration
of the photometric images.
