cds-question@unistra.frsurveyscatalogsvisible-astronomyphotographic-photometryUSNO-A1.0 is a catalog of 488,006,860 sources whose positions can be used for astrometric references. These sources were detected by the Precision Measuring Machine (PMM) built and operated by the U. S. Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station during the scanning and processing of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey I (POSS-I) O and E plates, the UK Science Research Council SRC-J survey plates, and the European Southern Observatory ESO-R survey plates. The PMM detects and processes at and beyond the nominal limiting magnitude of these surveys, but the large number of spurious detections requires that a filter be used to eliminate as many as possible. USNO-A's sole inclusion requirement was that there be spatially coincident detections (within a 2 arcsecond radius aperture) on the blue and red survey plate. For field centers of -30 degrees and above, data come from POSS-I plates, while data from field centers of -35 and below come from SRC-J and ESO-R plates.US Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station (1997)https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/I/243CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toI/220 : The HST Guide Star Catalog, version 1.1 (Lasker+ 1992)I/252 : The USNO-A2.0 Catalogue (supersedes this version)http://www.usno.navy.mil/pmm/ : The Precision Measuring Machinehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=I/243https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=I/243http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=I/243https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=I/243https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=I/243http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=I/243GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table I/243/out (* output (out of 526,280,881 stars))https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/I/243/out?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/I/243/out?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/I/243/out?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true0/0-11 6/https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/I/243?format=asciiOpticaldefaultI/243/out* output (out of 526,280,881 stars)Epoch?
