abstract = "LOFAR, the Low Frequency Array, is currently the largest distributed radio telescope. LOFAR is measuring cosmic-ray induced air showers since June 2011 and has collected several hundreds of events with hundreds of antennas per individual event in the frequency ranges 30-80 MHz and 110-240 MHz. The set-up of LOFAR and its performance are described. We discuss the in-situ calibration of the antenna response and first data.",
