  2. VII BSAC  "ASTROINFORMATICS" – Chepelare, 1-4 June 2010 DATA SELECTION PLATE SCALE <100"/mm SCAN RESOLUTION 2400dpi PLATE CENTER AND ORIENTATION IMPROVED DISTORTION MODEL ACCURACY: 0”.5 – the best case, 1” – raw plate center, 5” – scan resolution 300dpi

  3. VII BSAC  "ASTROINFORMATICS" – Chepelare, 1-4 June 2010 DATA SOURCE Catalogues of Wide-Field Plates • RA: 11 59 31.80, DEC: +47 45 55.4, radius: 5 deg – 2000 plates • 2. RA: 01 02 54.26, DEC: +41 20 42.6, box size: 5 deg – 700 plates • 3. RA: 11 59 31.80, DEC: -35 18 30.7, box size: 3 deg – 150 plates

  4. VII BSAC  "ASTROINFORMATICS" – Chepelare, 1-4 June 2010 ERROR MODEL – NORMAL DISTRIBUTION Normally distributed pseudo random numbers

  5. VII BSAC  "ASTROINFORMATICS" – Chepelare, 1-4 June 2010 TIPICAL ASTROMETRIC ERRORS According daily residuals of latritude observations at observatory Plana for the period 1987.5-1997.0

  6. VII BSAC  "ASTROINFORMATICS" – Chepelare, 1-4 June 2010 A MODEL OF TIPICAL ASTROMETRIC ERRORS 10000 Normally distributed numbers N (0, 0.1) Replaced by: 1%evenly distributed numbers from intervals (0.8, 0.4], [0.4, 0.8); 6%evenly distributed numbers from intervals(0.4, 0.1], [0.1, 0.4); 6%evenly distributed numbers from intervals(0.06, 0.06). Resulting s=0.14

  12. VII BSAC  "ASTROINFORMATICS" – Chepelare, 1-4 June 2010 CONCLUSIONS • The WFPDB provide significant number of plates, containing a given star. The plates numbers vary from hundreds to several thousands and they cover century time span. It is possible to estimate the star proper motion with enough accuracy by means of the corrected plates for image center and distortion with 100”/mm scale and scan resolution 2400dpi. • It is possible to use the raw star images for estimation of the great proper motions, if the number of plates is more than 1000.
