Abstract. Within the last decade or so new atomic data has become
available for most atomic systems of interest in astrophysics.
Recent progress in atomic processes relevant to spectral formation
is reviewed and the data sources are listed. Recommended transition
probabilities and effective collision strengths are presented
for a number of nebular emission lines.
