In addition to the emission of gravitational waves (GWs) the coalescence and merger of two neutron stars will produce a variety of electromagnetic (EM) signals. In this work we combine a large set of numerical relativity simulations performed by different groups and we present fits for the mass, kinetic energy, and the velocities of the dynamical ejected material. Additionally, we comment on the geometry and composition of the ejecta and discuss the influence of the stars' individual rotation. The derived fits can be used to approximate the luminosity and lightcurve of the kilonovae (macronovae) and to estimate the main properties of the radio flares. This correlation between the binary parameters and the EM signals allows in case of a GW detection to approximate possible EM counterparts when first estimates of the masses are available. After a possible kilonovae observation our results could also be used to restrict the region of the parameter space which has to be covered by numerical relativity simulations.
