Carlsberg Meridian Catalog 14 (CMC14)

The Carlsberg Meridian Telescope (formerly the Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle) is dedicated to carrying out high-precision optical astrometry. It underwent a major upgrade in March 1999, with the installation of a 2kx2k CCD camera was installed with a Sloan r' filter operating in a drift scan mode. With the new system, the magnitude limit is 17 (r'mag) and the positional accuracy is in the range 35 to 100 mas. The resulting survey is aimed to provide an astrometric and photometric catalogue in the declination range -30 to +50 degrees. This catalogue is the result of all the observations made between March 1999 and October 2005 in the declination band -30 to +50 -- minus a gap between 5h30m and 10h30m for declinations south of -15. It contains 95,858,475 stars, plus 8,046,291 in the rejected files. Further information can be found in the documentation (cmc14doc.pdf) or at the web site http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/~dwe/SRF/camc.html . It supersedes the previous versions (Cat. I/282) A dedicated remote query program (findcmc14) can be downloaded from http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/doc/cdsclient.html
