Scientific paper

Since 2000, Farm Cove Observatory in Auckland New Zealand has contributed observational data to several international collaborative teams. During this time, the author has supplied 1339 hours of data to the Center for Backyard Astrophysics, directly contributed to the co-discovery of the extra-solar planet, OGLE-2005-BLG-071 and has discovered three new eclipsing binary stars. The observational data from FCO has now been used in a number of peer-reviewed scientific publications. This paper describes the observatory equipment, the software used, and provides details on the observations carried out for the international collaborative teams. The paper demonstrates what can be achieved using a small telescope in a large city.
