report on behalf of the TAROT network and GRANDMA collaboration.

We performed tiled observations of LIGO/Virgo S190503bf event with the
TAROT-Chili telescope operating in clear filter.

The observation started on 05/03/19 23:16:23 UTC which corresponds
approximately to 263 minutes after the GW trigger time.

We performed the following tiled observations :

The Probability refers to the 2D spatial probability of the GW skymap
enclosed in a given tile. Each tile is 1.9x1.9 degrees. These observations
cover about 17% of the cumulative probability of the skymap.

The typical limiting magnitude is 18.0 for a 60.0 s exposure.

The coverage map is available at:

According to our data analysis, no serious optical transient candidates
were found.

GRANDMA (Global Rapid Advanced Network Devoted to the Multi-messenger
Addicts) is a network of robotic telescopes connected all over the
world with both photometry and spectrometry capabilities for Time-
domain Astronomy (https://grandma.lal.in2p3.fr/). Details on the TAROT
telescopes are available on the GRANDMA web pages or on
