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.

Description:
The LSPM catalog is a comprehensive list of 61,977 stars north of the
J2000 celestial equator that have proper motions larger than 0.15"/yr
(local-background-stars frame).
Positions are given with an accuracy of <~100 mas at the 2000.0 epoch,
and absolute proper motions are given with an accuracy of ~8 mas/yr.
The catalog is estimated to be over 99% complete at high Galactic
latitudes (|b|>15{deg}) and over 90% complete at low Galactic
latitudes (|b|>15{deg}), down to a magnitude.
The LIFE Target Star Database contains information useful
for the planned `LIFE mission`_ (mid-ir, nulling
interferometer in space). It characterizes possible
target systems including information about stellar,
planetary and disk properties. The data itself is mainly
a collection from different other catalogs.
Note that LIFE's target database is living
data. The content – and to some extent even structure – of these
tables may change at any time without prior warning.

The 2MASS Point Source Catalogue, short a couple of exotic fields. We
provide this data mainly for matching with other catalogs within our
TAP service.
PPMXL is a catalog of positions, proper motions, 2MASS- and optical
photometry of 900 million stars and galaxies, aiming to be complete
down to about V=20 full-sky. It is the result
of a re-reduction of USNO-B1 together with 2MASS to the ICRS as
represented by PPMX. This service additionally provides improved proper
motions computed according to Vickers et al, 2016
(:bibcode:`2016AJ....151...99V`).
