Abstract
We briefly discuss the use of existing astronomical data, mainly deep optical observations performed in order to obtain galaxy and star counts, for the identification of gamma-ray burst sources in particular and of newly discovered X- and gamma-ray sources in general. Use of such data cannot only reduce the amount of required telescope time but also, in comparison with present-day observations, allow the search for variability and proper motion of candidate optical counterparts over a time span of several years.
