Dear Astro-COLIBRI Community,

We are excited to announce the release of Astro-COLIBRI v2.15.0, packed with new features and enhancements to improve your experience and capabilities. Here’s what’s new:

🔭 **Introducing OPTICAL LIGHTCURVES** 🔭

- _Daily Updated Lightcurves_: Using data from the large sky surveys ATLAS, ASAS-SN and ZTF, you have now direct access to the latest lightcurves for all recent optical transients. The lightcurves are updated daily and are directly available in the interfaces.
- _Customized Lightcurves_: You now also have the opportunity to generate customized lightcurves using user-defined time ranges for all events.
- More details are given on a [dedicated page in our documentation](https://astro-colibri.science/lightcurvedoc).

🌟 **New Additions** 🌟

- _Localisation Contours for IceCube Cascade Events_: We’ve added localisation contours to help you better interpret cascade-like high-energy neutrino event. They are shown in the cone searches and require the science mode to be activated.
- _GRBs Detected by the SVOM Satellite_: Following the [successfull launch of the french-chinese SVOM mission](https://forum.astro-colibri.science/t/svom-launched/196), you can now access data on gamma-ray bursts detected by the SVOM satellite. **🚀**

🛠 **Minor Changes and Improvements** 🛠

- _Improved Sub-Filters for Classified Optical Transients_: Enhanced sub-filters for more accurate classification of optical transients.
- _Updated Tilepy Integration to v1.1.0_: We’ve upgraded Tilepy integration to the latest version.
- _Layout and Design Improvements_: We’ve made several tweaks to enhance the user interface and overall design.
- _Various Minor Improvements and Bug Fixes_: As usual, we implemented various minor enhancements and bug fixes to ensure a smoother experience.

We hope these new features and improvements will enhance your research and make Astro-COLIBRI even more useful for you. As always, we appreciate your feedback and suggestions for future updates.

Thank you for being a part of our community.

Best regards,  
The Astro-COLIBRI Team
