URAT1 Catalog
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
URAT is a follow-up project to the successful UCAC project using the same astrograph but with a much larger focal plane array and a bandpass shifted further to the red.
Description
Longer integration times and more sensitive, backside CCDs allowed for a substantial increase in limiting magnitude, resulting in about 4-fold increase in the average number of stars per square degree as compared to UCAC. Additional observations with an objective grating largely extend the dynamic range to include observations of stars as bright as about 3rd magnitude.
Multiple sky overlaps per year result in a significant improvement in positional precision as compared to UCAC. A URAT1 release paper for the Astronomical Journal is in preparation. URAT1 is an observational catalog at a mean epoch between 2012.3 and 2014.6; ot covers the magnitude range 3 to 18.5 in R-band, with a positional precision of 5 to 40 mas.

It covers most of the northern hemisphere and some areas down to -24.8{deg} in declination. Acknowledging URAT1:
