Abstract Astrometric and photometric observations of the comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 were performed at the Zeiss-1000 telescope of the International Astronomical Observatory Sanglokh (IAOS) of the Institute of Astrophysics, Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Tajikistan in July–August 2017. Although the comet has a short period of revolution it is regarded to be an object of the Centaurs group. Comet was exhibited a new activity this period which we used for analysis of its features. The coordinates of comet were determined and the orbit was calculated, the apparent and absolute magnitudes in BVRI bands were determined, as well the comet color indices and the estimation of nucleus diameter were obtained. From investigations of morphological features we identified two dust structures in the coma.
