During 2004, SuperWASP-North (La Palma) observed 6.7 million stars of V=8-15mag for up to 5 months with the aim of identifying new bright transiting extra-solar planets. In the first year of operation, with only 5 10cm telescopes, several terabytes of data were collected. With such a vast amount of data, an automated but thorough approach to data reduction and transit detection was required. From 2006, a full complement of 16 cameras (at SuperWASP-North and SuperWASP-South (SAAO)) is in use, tripling the data flow. In this talk we will discuss the adapted BLS transit-detection algorithm and the filtering procedure we have developed to highlight genuine transiting exoplanets and reject both data artefacts and astrophysical false positives as far as possible. We will also outline the photometric and spectroscopic follow up procedure for the high priority candidates passing this filtering stage, and provide details of the latest results. Further details of the first 2 planets to emerge from the survey - from just 5 cameras in the opening 2004 season - WASP-1b and WASP-2b will be discussed following data from recent observations.
