[en] The authors present a generalized method applicable to the reduction of photometric observations in any well-defined system. The method is characterized by the use of practically every measurement of any non-variable star in the reduction procedure. Its main advantages are a greater accuracy and a substantial saving of observing time on extinction and standard stars. A particular case of application to the uvby system is detailed and discussed.
