ASTEROID SPIN VECTORS
This is a tabulation of 526 determinations of asteroid pole orientations, covering 104 numbered asteroids, gathered from the literature from 1932 through 1995.
ASTEROID NAMES AND DISCOVERY V2.0
This data set includes names, designations, and discovery circumstances for the numbered asteroids, sorted in order of catalog number.
EIGHT COLOR ASTEROID SURVEY V4.0
This data set contains the reflectance spectra and associated data of the Eight Color Asteroid Survey (ECAS), including results for 589 asteroids.
IRTF NEAR-IR SPECTROSCOPY OF ASTEROIDS V1.0
This data set contains low-resolution, near-infrared (0.8 - 2.5 micron) spectra of asteroids obtained with SpeX at the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) on Mauna Kea. Since it was commissioned in June 2000, SpeX has been the premier instrument for producing high quality near-IR spectra of asteroids. These spectra have been used for both taxonomic studies of asteroids, and for more detailed mineralogical and compositional investigations. This data set archives the reduced, calibrated spectra that have been published in the peer-reviewed literature, and will be regularly updated as more data become publicly available.
2MASS ASTEROID AND COMET SURVEY
This data set includes J, H, and Ks magnitudes from the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) for sources which were positionally associated with asteroids, comets, planets, and planetary satellites. This version includes the 2MASS Extended Mission.
ASTEROID LIGHTCURVE DERIVED DATA V16.0
This is a compilation of published rotational parameters derived from lightcurve data for asteroids, based on the Warner et al. (2009) Asteroid Lightcurve Database. This is the version as of February 16, 2016. In addition to reported rotational parameters by individual paper, there is a summary file with the values adopted by Harris, Warner, and Pravec as the most likely correct values for each asteroid. The data set also contains files listing known binary asteroids, asteroid spin axes, and 'tumbling' asteroids.
NESVORNY HCM ASTEROID FAMILIES V3.0
This data set contains asteroid dynamical family memberships for 122 families calculated from synthetic proper elements, including high-inclination families. These families were calculated by David Nesvorny (Nesvorny et al. 2015) using his code based on the Hierarchical Clustering Method (HCM) described in Zappala et al. (1990, 1994). The input synthetic proper elements for 384,337 numbered asteroids were calculated by Knezevic and Milani.
Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature: Asteroids: Ida
These images display asteriods documented and approved by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).
2MASS ASTEROID AND COMET SURVEY V2.0
This data set includes J, H, and Ks magnitudes from the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) for sources which were positionally associated with asteroids, comets, planets, and planetary satellites. This version includes the 2MASS Extended Mission.
Small Main-Belt Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey, Phase II V1.0
This data set contains visible-wavelength (0.435-0.925 micron) spectra for 1341 main-belt asteroids observed during the second phase of the Small Main-belt Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey (SMASSII) between August 1993 and March 1999. The purpose of the SMASSII survey was to provide a new basis for studying the compositional diversity and structure of the asteroid belt. Based on experiences gained from the earlier SMASS survey, SMASSII focused on producing an even larger, internally consistent set of CCD spectra for small (D < 20 km) main-belt asteroids. The observing strategies and procedures used during SMASSII roughly parallel those used in the first survey (Xu et al. Icarus 115 1-35, 1995), though several minor changes were made in instrumentation and in portions of the data reduction process.

ASTEROID 3-MICRON SURVEY V1.0
This dataset includes the infrared spectrophotometry asteroid data reported in the following papers: [LEBOFSKY1980]; [FEIERBERGETAL1985]; [LEBOFSKYETAL1990]; and [JONESETAL1990]
Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature: Asteroids: Gaspra Regions
These images display asteriods documented and approved by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).
ASTEROID OCCULTATIONS V12.0
This data set is intended to include all reported timings of observed asteroid, planet, and planetary satellite occultation events as well as occultation axes derived from those timings by David W. Dunham and David Herald. This version is complete through January 2014.
Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature: Asteroids: Lutetia Regions
These images display asteriods documented and approved by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).
Asteroid (101955) Bennu Radar Shape Model V1.0
We present the three-dimensional shape of near-Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu (provisional designation 1999 RQ36) based on radar images and optical lightcurves (Nolan et al., 2013). Bennu was observed both in 1999 at its discovery apparition, and in 2005 using the 12.6-cm radar at the Arecibo Observatory and the 3.5-cm radar at the Goldstone tracking station. Data obtained in both apparitions were used to construct a shape model of this object. Observations were also obtained at many other wavelengths to characterize this object, some of which were used to further constrain the shape modeling (Clark et al., 2011; Hergenrother et al., 2013; Krugly et al., 1999).
ASTEROID LIGHTCURVE DERIVED DATA V11.0
This is a compilation of published rotational parameters derived from lightcurve data for asteroids, based on the Warner et al. (2009) Asteroid Lightcurve Database. This is the version released on Mar. 9, 2010. In addition to reported rotational parameters by individual paper, there is a summary file with the values adopted by Harris, Warner, and Pravec as the most likely correct values for each asteroid. The data set also contains files listing known binary asteroids and 'tumbling' asteroids.
ASTEROID ABSOLUTE MAGNITUDES V3.0
IAU-adopted magnitude parameters (absolute V magnitude and slope parameter) for all numbered asteroids.
ASTEROID NAMES AND DISCOVERY V8.0
This data set includes names, designations, and discovery circumstances for the asteroids numbered as of April 18, 2004.
DELBO THERMAL INFRARED ASTEROID DIAMETERS AND ALBEDOS
This data set contains radiometric albedos and diameters for Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) derived by three different thermal models and reported in Delbo (2004) [DELBO2004]. The observed infrared fluxes on which the derivations were based are also included.
