The present 268 exposures of the Saturnian system have been taken between 1980 and 1985 on three different instruments: the 107 cm at Pic-du-Midi (France), the 154 cm at Danish/ESO (La Silla, Chile), and the 3.60 m at CFHT (Manua Kea, Hawii). The observations are described for each of the three sites. The methods of reduction are presented, and the resulting 2814 intersatellite coordinates are given. They represent 15 percent of the observations of Saturn I to VIII moons available up to now. The accuracy of the positions is estimated to be less than 0.1 arcsec.
