One of the great challenges in time-domain astronomy is the problem of combining data obtained at various epochs with very different instruments. These problems are mostly discussed from within a specific observational mode, for example photometry, spectroscopy or imaging. This Workshop explored by example diverse pitfalls of time-domain calibration by discussing calibration and standardisation problems across various types of variables.
