Abstract
Reliable estimations of ephemeris errors are fundamental for the follow-up of CoRoT candidates. An equation for the precision of minimum times, originally developed for eclipsing binaries, has been optimized for CoRoT photometry and been used to calculate such errors. It may indicate expected timing precisions for transit events from CoRoT, as well as from Kepler. Prediction errors for transit events may also be used to calculate probabilities about observing entire or partial transits in any given span of observational coverage, leading to an improved reliability in deductions made from follow-up observations.
