Scientific paper

We present UBVRI CCD photometry of the metal-poor open cluster NGC 2506. Data were taken with the WIYN 0.9m telescope on a photometric night and were calibrated using Landolt fields taken on the same night. We present revised parameters for NGC 2506 of reddening, metallicity, distance and age. This is part of the ongoing WOCS photometric survey of this cluster and our results provide an independent calibration of the magnitude scale which reduces the systematic errors in the cluster parameters.
