Abstract

This paper describes the present status of the Grand Interferometre a 2 Telescopes (GI2T). We review the general features of this instrument and present the scientific programs pursued by our group. Attention is given here to procedures of instrumental and visibility calibration, including the response of both the detector and spectrometer. We discuss the method of data analysis and the attainable accuracy of astrophysical parameters. The current limitations of the GI2T and development of our new optical table are presented.
