During four years, systematic observations have been conducted in drift scan mode with the Bordeaux automated meridian circle in the declination band [+11 ; +18]. The resulting astrometric catalog includes about 2 300 000 stars down to the magnitude limit V_M_=16.3. Nearly all stars (96%) have been observed at least 6 times, the catalog being complete down to V_M_=15.4. The median internal standard error in position is about 35mas in the magnitude range 11
