Abstract
The Virgo interferometer, aimed at detecting gravitational waves, is now in a commissioning phase. Measurements of its optical properties are needed for the understanding of the instrument. The techniques developed for the measurement of the optical parameters of Virgo are presented in this paper. These parameters are compared to the Virgo specifications.
