This directory contains the OGLE-III catalog of proper motions for stars
observed towards the Magellanic Clouds.
The directory structure is as follows:
README - this file
catalog/ - subdirectory with compressed catalog files for
each subfield separately (1256)
whole_catalog.gz - compressed file containing catalog data for all
the subfields
variables.dat - proper motions of variable stars
CPM.dat - list of common proper motion binaries
remarks.txt - remarks on selected objects
Format of the files in catalog/ subdirectory and whole_catalog.gz file:

107-111 F5.2 mas Uncertainty of parallax
113-119 F7.2 mas Differential refraction coefficient
121-125 F5.2 mas Uncertainty of differential refraction coefficient
127-132 F6.2 --- Chi^2 of the model
134-137 F4.2 --- Chi^2 limit
139-142 I4 --- Number of points used in the fit
144 I1 --- Visual inspection flag: 1 - inspected, 0 - not
inspected
146 I1 --- Images used in the fit flag: 0 - all images, 1 - only
best seeing images were used
Parallax and its uncertainty equal to "0.00" indicate that it was not
possible to measure it. Similarly V-I color of "9.999" indicates V-band
brightness is unknown. Data for stars with proper motions higher than
100 mas/yr were copied from Poleski et al. (2011), Acta Astron. 61, 199
(see ../hpm_mcs/ directory).

the components lacks color information
Any presentation of the scientific analysis or usage of the data from
the Catalog of Stellar Proper Motions Toward Magellanic Clouds should
include the appropriate reference(s) to OGLE paper(s).

16-04-2012 Corrected typos in total proper motion for stars with
proper motion in R.A. = 0.00 mas/yr.
