(THU) report on behalf of the TAROT network and GRANDMA collaborations.
We performed tiled observations of the LIGO/Virgo event S190828l with
the TAROT-Chili (TCH), TAROT-Calern (TCA) and TAROT-Reunion (TRE)
telescopes operating in the visible located respectively at La Silla ESO
Observatory (LaS/ESO), Calern site at the Cote d'Azur Observatory and
Les Makes astronomical Observatory.
The observation started for TCH on 08/28/19 08:08:26 UTC which
corresponds to approximately 74 minutes after the GW trigger time.
We performed the following tiled observations :

TStart and TEnd refer 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
for TCA and TCH and 4.2x4.2 degrees for TRE. The coordinating
observations cover about 18% of the cumulative probability of the
bayestar skymap available on Aug 28, 2019 07:17:33 UTC. The typical
limiting magnitude is 18.0 for a 60.0 s exposure for TCH and TCA and
17.0 for a 60.0 s exposure for TRE.

No significant transient candidates were found during our low latency
analysis.
