Abstract

We present the BVI photometric maps of the Large Magellanic Cloud. They contain BVI photometry and astrometry of more than 7 million stars from the central parts of the LMC. The data were collected during the second phase of the OGLE microlensing project. We discuss the accuracy of the data and present color-magnitude diagrams of all 26 fields observed by OGLE in the LMC. The BVI maps of the LMC are accessible electronically for the astronomical community from the OGLE Internet archive.
