Abstract

The present paper discusses the issues related to the problems of producing a domestic astrophotometric catalog of stars of the entire sky, necessary to solve the problems of astroorientation, astrogation, as well as the problem of determining the brightness of natural and man-made objects located in the near-Earth space. Modern catalogues of stars should contain the most complete and accurate information about the photometric characteristics of stars, their coordinates, as well as their own movements. The paper provides a brief overview of modern catalogues of stars, in order to identify problems with the use of the existing catalogues. The analysis showed that the main photometric catalogues of stars are heterogeneous (different telescopes, detectors and filters are used for different zones), suffer from incompleteness, requiring complex calculations of stellar magnitudes from one photometric system to another. Astrometric catalogues of the period before GAIA significantly depended on the accuracy of determining errors in the proper motions of stars, which led to the “aging” of catalogues and made it difficult to use them in astroorientation and astrogation systems. The problematic issues of using the existing astrometric and photometric catalogues of stars are considered. The paper considers issues related to the creation and maintenance of a domestic photometric and astrometric catalog of stars of the entire sky in the interests of providing optoelectronic information systems. Its main consumers are identified in terms of using the catalog data by information optoelectronic systems for various purposes. The requirements for such catalogues are defined, both in terms of completeness of photometric data and in terms of astrometric data. The necessity has been determined of creating a centralized system for maintaining such a catalog and bringing to any interested consumers the coordinate and photometric information regarding the background stellar environment required, including that in the near-infrared range. Proposals have been formulated for launching the work on the developing a network of wide-angle telescopes necessary to support the domestic photometric and astrometric catalog of stars of the entire sky.
