12. OpenNGC
- ID:

- Title:
- OpenNGC
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- The GAVO DC team
- Description:
- OpenNGC is a database containing positions and main data of NGC (New General Catalogue) and IC (Index Catalogue) objects. It has been built by merging data from NED, HyperLEDA, SIMBAD, and several databases available at HEASARC. In this VO publication, we have changed most of the column names, mostly to make them work as ADQL column names without resorting to delimited identifiers. The mapping should be obvious.

- Title:
- The Gaia-PS1-SDSS (GPS1) Proper Motion Catalog
- Short Name:
- GPS1
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- This catalog combines Gaia DR1, Pan-STARRS 1, SDSS and 2MASS astrometry to compute proper motions for 350 million sources across three-fourths of the sky down to a magnitude of mr≈20. Positions of galaxies from Pan-STARRS 1 are used to build a reference frame for PS1, SDSS, and 2MASS data. Gaia DR1 is adapted to that reference frame by exploiting that locally, proper motions are linear. GPS1 has a characteristic systematic error of less than 0.3 mas/yr, and a typical precision of 1.5−2.0 mas/yr. The proper motions have been validated using galaxies, open clusters, distant giant stars and QSOs. In comparison with other published faint proper motion catalogs, GPS1's systematic error (<0.3 mas/yr) is about 10 times better than that of PPMXL and UCAC4 (>2.0 mas/yr). Similarly, its precision (~1.5 mas/yr) is an improvement by ∼ 4 times relative to PPMXL and UCAC4 (∼6.0 mas/yr). For QSOs, the precision of GPS1 is found to be worse (∼2.0−3.0 mas/yr), possibly due to their particular differential chromatic refraction (DCR).

- Title:
- The Henry Draper Catalog with Gaia IDs
- Short Name:
- hdgaia cone
- Date:

- Publisher:
- The GAVO DC team
- Description:
- This is the Henry Draper catalog (HD, Cannon & Pickering 1918-1924) as distributed by the Astronomical Data Center in 1989 (Vizier III/135A), with Gaia DR2 source_ids and positions added. The link to modern Gaia DR2 was done through Fabricius et al's match between HD and Tycho 2 (Vizier IV/25), TGAS to match Tycho 2 and Gaia DR1, and Gaia DR2 to match against Gaia DR1.
15. The HSOY Catalog
- ID:

- Title:
- The HSOY Catalog
- Short Name:
- HSOY SCS
- Date:

- Publisher:
- The GAVO DC team
- Description:
- HSOY is a catalog of 583'001'653 objects with precise astrometry based on PPMXL and Gaia DR1. Typical formal errors at mean epoch in proper motion are below 1 mas/yr for objects brighter than 10 mag, and about 5 mas/yr at the faint end (about 20 mag). South of -30 degrees, astrometry is significantly worse. HSOY also contains, where available, USNO-B, Gaia, and 2MASS photometry. HSOY's positions and proper motions are given for epoch J2000. The catalog becomes severely incomplete faintwards of 16 mag in the G-band. The mean epochs are typically very close to Gaia's J2015. HSOY still contains about 0.7% spurious close "binaries" (non-matched stars) from the original USNO-B (marked with non-NULL clone). Also, failed matches within Gaia DR1 contribute another 1.5% spurious pairs (marked with non-NULL comp). In both cases, astrometry presumably is sub-standard.
