Report on behalf of the TAROT network and GRANDMA collaborations.

We performed tiled observations of LIGO/Virgo S190517h event with the
TAROT-Chili (TCH) telescope operating in the visible located at La
Silla ESO observatory (LaS/ESO).
The observation started on 05/17/19
10:04:53 UTC which corresponds approximately to 254 minutes after the
GW trigger time.

We performed the following tiled observations :

TStart and TEnd refers respectively to the time of the first and last
exposure for a given tile. Observations are not necessarily continuous
 ��in this interval.
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 9% of the cumulative
probability of the skymap.
The typical limiting magnitude is 18.0 for a 60.0 s exposure.

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/).
