report on behalf of the SVOM Multi Messenger Astronomy and GWAC teams
(http://www.svom.fr/en/svom-mma-and-gwac-team):


We observed 49 sky regions to cover the initial skymap of the 
LIGO/Virgo trigger S200219ac (GCN # 27130), with the SVOM/GWAC-F30 
telescope operated by Huaibei Normal University and NAOC, CAS 
at Xinglong Observatory, China. 
The SVOM/GWAC-F30 is equipped with Standard Johnson filters
and 4Kx4K FLI CCD (FOV~1.8x1.8 degree). The GWAC-F30 is using
tiling observation strategy. The tiles are calculated to cover
the most probable regions of the 90% localization area given in the
GW probability skymap. 5 images with a single exposure of 70s
time in R band are taken for each tile. The typical limiting magnitude
of our image is 17 mag in the R band calibrated to USNO B1.0 R2.
The 49 tile coordinates and the observation periods are listed below:
