G2C2 I: Homogeneous SDSS photometry for Galactic GCs

We present $g^\prime$ and $z^\prime$ aperture photometry for 96 Galactic Globular Clusters, making this the largest homogeneous catalog of photometry for these objects in the SDSS filter system. For a subset of 56 clusters we also provide photometry in $r^\prime$ and $i^\prime$. We carry out comparisons with previous photometry as well as with the SDSS dataset. The data will be useful for a series of applications in Galactic and extragalactic astrophysics. Future papers will analyse the colour-metallicity relation, colour-magnitude diagrams, and structural parameters. The compilation of results based on this dataset will be collected in the Galactic Globular Cluster Catalog (G2C2).
