cds-question@unistra.frThe "Lick Observatory Sky Atlas" (Lick Observatory, 1965) is a set of plates for 166 fields of 18 by 18 degrees, covering the sky from the north pole down to -30 degrees of declination. "The Mount John University Observatory Photographic Sky Survey" (Doughty et al., 1972) covers 142 similar fields from -15 degrees of declination down to the south pole. In the region of overlap, the fields are the same for the two surveys. Fields 1-46 of the Mount John survey cover the part of the sky (-45 degrees of declination to the south pole) not in the Lick survey; in a special limited edition published in 1972, this part is called the "Canterbury Sky Atlas" (Australia). The overlap between fields is 3 degrees. The plate scale is approximately 232 arc seconds per millimeter. The limiting magnitude is approximately 16. Neither survey is intended for astrometry or photometry; the Lick survey was originally done to obtain galaxy statistics (Shane and Wirtanen 1967). An excellent summary of several photographic sky surveys is given by Ingrao and Kasparian (1967). T. A. Nagy (1980) generated the dataset described, and also gathered most of the material used in the writing of this document.Lick Observatory (1965)https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/VI/31CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=VI/31https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=VI/31http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=VI/31https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=VI/31https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=VI/31http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=VI/31GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table VI/31/data (Data)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/VI/31/data?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/VI/31/data?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/VI/31/data?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true0.31029168-89.733122920.0055555555555555566/241 279 556 874 1113 1189 1466 1738 2026 2140 2215 2426 2746 2826 3050 3289 3578 3620 3834 3898 4314 4375 4652 4970 5209 5285 5562 5834 6116 6233 6309 6522 6842 6922 7140 7466 7699 7903 7967 8410 8471 8748 9066 9305 9380 9658 9930 10201 10329 10404 10618 10938 11018 11224 11455 11556 11759 12015 12079 12287 12529 12567 12844 13162 13401 13479 13754 14026 14425 14503 14714 15034 15114 15231 15590 15641 16117 16159 16490 16852 17123 17178 17817 18023 18090 18844 19047 19114 19697 19735 20012 20330 20586 20948 21219 21263 21913 22117 22186 22937 23141 23210 23770 23831 24108 24426 24682 25044 25315 25357 26009 26212 26282 27027 27236 27306 27866 27927 28204 28522 28778 29140 29411 29466 30105 30309 30378 31129 31333 31402 31984 32023 32300 32618 32768 32992 33056 33312 33511 33561 33920 34186 34362 34649 34727 34944 35066 35146 35466 35673 35751 35946 36308 36579 36634 37072 37354 37381 37593 37927 38282 38458 38745 38820 38950 39162 39242 39562 39769 39844 40042 40404 40675 40717 41162 41226 41445 41482 41770 42012 42378 42554 42841 42917 43033 43258 43338 43658 43859 43940 44138 44500 44771 44813 45264 45532 45584 45863 46474 46650 46937 47013 47168 47354 47434 47754 47961 48037 48234 48596 48867 48922https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/VI/31?format=asciiOpticaldefaultVI/31/dataDatarecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
