Planetary Nebulae (PNs) are highly representative of the late stages of intermediate mass stellar evolution. However, there are still many unresolved questions in their evolutionary scheme. Mass loss processes during the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) are not fully understood. Binarity, rotation and magnetic fields may play an important role in PNs formation. The morphological study of PNs will help us to address those questions, and therefore a meaningful homogeneous database is needed.
