ABSTRACT 9420149 HUMPHREYS, Roberta The Automated Plate Scanner (APS) of the University of Minnesota has been used to scan the glass duplicates of the first epoch Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS I) and create an on-line catalog, STARBASE, available to the public over the Internet. The database of hundreds of millions of stars and several million galaxies includes positions, magnitudes, colors, and object classification using a neural network technique. Another survey made at Palomar 20 years later is being scanned and measured for proper motions of every object possible in the POSS I database. Duplicates of the second epoch Palomar Sky Survey (POSS II) plates are to be obtained and measured. The resulting databases from the additional surveys will be made available over the Internet in a user-friendly form. The new databases will include some image information, as well.

摘要9420149汉弗莱斯，罗伯塔，明尼苏达大学的自动化板扫描仪（APS）已被用来扫描第一个Epoch Palomar天文台天文台Sky Survey（Poss I）的玻璃重复项，并创建了一个在线目录，Starbase，STARBASE，可在互联网上使用。使用神经网络技术的位置，大小，颜色和对象分类的数据库包括位置，大小，颜色和对象分类。 20年后，在帕洛马尔（Palomar）进行的另一项调查正在扫描和衡量，以便对POSS I数据库中所有可能的对象进行适当的动作。将获得并测量第二个时期帕洛马尔天空调查（POSS II）板的重复。来自其他调查的结果数据库将以用户友好的形式通过Internet提供。新数据库还将包括一些图像信息。
