Catalog extraction rules
•Only plates included in the GSC2.2 plate list considered (POSS II: 897 XJxxx + 897 XFxxx fields; 606 SERC-J, Sxxx, 216 SERC-EJ, Erxxx, and the red material, XSxxx and GRxxx, short exp., plates)
•Objects brighter than: J<19.5 OR F<18.5
•Objects classed as defect on only one plate discarded
•Astrometry: export the position of that entry of a given object closest to the entry’s plate center (tolerance set to 0.25 deg). Brake ties by selecting entry with the most recent epoch
•Photometry: for each bandpass, take the value of the entry closest to the plate center

Global Error Analysis
![Page 12: MGL/OATo 7th GSC2 Meeting, Barolo (I), 22 Oct 2001 The GSC2.2 Catalog: Global Properties Mario G. Lattanzi Osservatorio Astronomico di Torino](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697c01d1a28abf838cd05cc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MGL/OATo 7th GSC2 Meeting, Barolo (I), 22 Oct 2001 Astrometric errors
External Comparisons to:
•UCAC1
Sky coverage: Southern hemisphere (-90 deg/-15 deg)
Mag limit = 16.0, precision: better than 0.1 arcsec per coordinate)
•2MASS
Approaching all-sky coverage. Mag limit close to that of GSC2.2; position to 0.2 arcsec (per coordinate)
Internal comparisons: on average relative error well within the 0.2 arcsec requirement (see last year’s meeting)
Method: Chi-square and K-S tests on the residuals (GSC2.2.01 - external catalog). The hypothesis put to test is that, with the values from the two catalogs assumed Gaussian distributed, the residuals are also Gaussian distributed.

MGL/OATo 7th GSC2 Meeting, Barolo (I), 22 Oct 2001
Astrometric Error (external): Conclusions
Overall, the residuals appear well behaved, although simple statistical tests fail.
As expected, this indicates the presence of magnitude and plate-based effects. Indeed, the same tests are consistently passed when limited to small magnitude bins or residuals from the same plate. This, in turn, is further proof that the single plate calibrations do obey gaussian statistics.

•Internal Tests: J, F plate-to-plate, J-F=const
• Semi-internal tests: J, F GSC2 vs. GSCPC2
• External tests: against photometric catalogs (M67, DMS, EIS,
etc.)
• Comparisons against starcounts from Galaxy models

Internal photometric errors: plate-to-plate comparison statistics
RMS(m)=0.27 / 2 mag from the analysis of stellar objects from 67 GSC-II (CRA) plates by Pannunzio, Morbidelli et al. (2001, OATo Rept. 57/01). This is an upper limit for GSC 2.2 because it is based on all stars down to the plate limits.
