collaboration report:
We observed Swift GRB 170113A (Evans et al. GCN 20446) on January 13,
from 10:53:32 UT (50 minutes since the GRB) with 1-m LCO telescope units
in Sutherland with SDSS r and i filters. We clearly detect the
Swift-UVOT optical counterpart with the following values:
Mid Time Exposure Filter Magnitude (AB)
(hours) (s)
-------------------------------------------------------
0.89 5x60 SDSS-R 19.06 +- 0.11
0.89 5x60 SDSS-I 18.84 +- 0.08

as calibrated against nearby USNO-UCAC4 sources.
