The goal of the AMBRE Project, in a collaboration between
the Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur and ESO, is to provide homogeneously
determined stellar parameters for the archived spectra of four of ESO’s key
spectrographs.
Presented here are the stellar parameters for the UVES archived spectra
of six standard setups: Red860; Red580; Red564; Blue437; Blue390;
and Blue346. We will explore the characteristics of each stellar dataset
revealing the range of stars that have been observed and how they can be
combined as a coherent set. The combination of the six archive sets has resulted
in yet another extensive stellar sample with homogeneously defined
stellar parameters. This spectral library has the potential to greatly further
the use of the ESO archived spectra in a range of stellar population studies.
