5. HOW TO IMPLEMENT AND OPTIMIZE THE SEARCH FOR OCCULTATIONS BY KBOs

Our thought is thus that the search for occultations by KBOs using high precision photometry is probably the only tool to explore the small objects of the Kuiper Belt. It is therefore important to discuss which observational parameters are necessary and/or possible to fit and what are the available facilities to implement and optimize such a method.
