Recent progress in large scale computations of photoionization cross sections, radiative transitions probabilities, and collision strengths for the lowest ionization stages of Iron, i.e., Fe I-VI, are reported. These results are part of an international collaboration called the IRON Project. The present results exhibit large differences with respect to data currently in use and is expected to be of importance in the study of astrophysical objects in the UV and the EUV.
