SDSS filter colors

by planetaryscience

I've always wondered about this but haven't been able to tell for sure- what colors do each of the UGRIZ filters in SDSS correspond to? I'm trying to report an observation of asteroid (361023) 2005 WV56 but I need to know what each color is to report when each filter was taken.
