Abstract
 The SuperCOSMOS data primarily originate from scans of the UK Schmidt
and Palomar POSS II blue, red and near-IR sky surveys. The ESO Schmidt
R (dec < -17.5) and Palomar POSS-I E (dec > -17.5) surveys have also
been scanned and provide an early (1st) epoch red measurement.
Mirrored here is the source table containing four-plate multi-colour,
multi-epoch data which are merged into a single source catalogue for
general science exploitation. Within the GAVO DC, some column names
have been adapted to local customs (primarily positions, proper
motions).
