We combine our data with the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) and Deep Near-Infrared Southern Sky Survey (DENIS) catalogs to provide, when available, U through K_s_ data for stars. Internal and external astrometric and photometric tests using existing optical photometry (U, B, and V from Massey's (ApJS, in press) bright star catalog; B, V, and I from the microlensing database of OGLE; and I from the near-infrared sky survey DENIS) are used to determine the observational uncertainties and identify systematic errors. We fit stellar atmosphere models to the optical data to check the consistency of the photometry for individual stars across the passbands and to estimate the line-of-sight extinction. Finally, we use the estimated line-of-sight extinctions to produce an extinction map across the Small Magellanic Cloud, and we investigate the nature of extinction as a function of stellar population.</description><source format="bibcode">2002AJ....123..855Z</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/123/855</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/B/2mass">B/2mass : The 2MASS database (IPAC/UMass, 2000)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/B/denis">B/denis : The DENIS database (Epchtein+, 1999)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/228">II/228 : DENIS Catalogue toward Magellanic Clouds (DCMC) (Cioni+ 2000)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/236">II/236 : UBVR CCD survey of the Magellanic clouds (Massey+, 2002)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/128/1606">J/AJ/128/1606 : Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey: the LMC (Zaritsky+, 2004)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+AS/135/133">J/A+AS/135/133 : First DENIS I-band extragalactic catalog (Vauglin+ 1999)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AcA/48/147">J/AcA/48/147 : OGLE SMC BVI photometry (Udalski+ 1998)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AcA/48/563">J/AcA/48/563 : OGLE SMC eclipsing binaries BVI photometry (Udalski+ 1998)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AcA/49/437">J/AcA/49/437 : BVI photometry of OGLE SMC Cepheids (Udalski+, 1999)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AcA/49/543">J/AcA/49/543 : OGLE LMC + SMC Cepheids VI photometry (Pietrzynski+, 1999)</relatedResource></relationship></content><rights>https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html</rights><capability><interface xsi:type="vr:WebBrowser"><accessURL use="full">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/123/855</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/123/855</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/123/855</mirrorURL></interface></capability><capability><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/123/855</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/123/855</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/123/855</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface></capability><capability standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/TAP#aux"><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap</accessURL></interface></capability><capability xsi:type="cs:ConeSearch" standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/ConeSearch"><description>Cone search capability for table J/AJ/123/855/table1 (MCPS Catalog (Small Magellanic Cloud))</description><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/123/855/table1?</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/123/855/table1?</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/123/855/table1?</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface><maxSR>180.0</maxSR><maxRecords>50000</maxRecords><verbosity>true</verbosity><testQuery><ra>5.617095</ra><dec>-74.89902</dec><sr>0.005555555555555556</sr></testQuery></capability><coverage><spatial>5/8323 8326 8329 8331-8332 6/32954 33285-33287 33289 33291 33296 33298-33299 33313 33315 33321 33323 33336 33412</spatial><spectral>8.600449485160128e-20 6.118840631666147e-19</spectral><footprint ivo-id="ivo://ivoa.net/std/moc">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/123/855?format=ascii</footprint><waveband>Optical</waveband><waveband>Infrared</waveband></coverage><tableset><schema><name>default</name><table><name>J/AJ/123/855/table1</name><description>MCPS Catalog (Small Magellanic Cloud)</description><column><name>recno</name><description>Record number assigned by the VizieR team.
