Abstract
An automatic system of 36 cm telescope for the Web Based astronomy education was developed. The tracking accuracy of this system was about 1"/min. The pointing accuracy was ${\pm}10"$ in the right ascension direction, ${\pm}20"$ in the declination direction. These results will be improved continuously. The results of IRAF image analysis for the pilot observation data were stable, which means that this remote astronomical observation system is suitable f3r the education of astronomical observation.
