[vsnet-survey 61] GSC II

[crawl@zoom.co.uk]

http://www-gsss.stsci.edu/support/data_access.htm

Currently an order of magnitude larger than USNO Ax.

Although the user request interface is not too friendly at the moment, this
may well be useful in the case of "new" stars not identifiabe in surveys
such as USNO Ax and/or in parts of the sky not yet covered by 2MASS.

If it becomes incorporated into ViZieR at the CDS that would also mean that
a user could plot up just about any survey plate and overlay data for every
image on that plate, via the CDS' Aladin server.

Cheers
