Data Set Overview
  =================
  Version 1.0 of this data set includes Data Release 1 of the Sloan Digital
  Sky Survey (SDSS), including astrometric and photometric data for 58117
  moving objects from 87 observing runs through Dec. 15th, 2001. The
  catalog includes various identification parameters, SDSS astrometric
  measurements (five SDSS magnitudes and their errors), and orbital
  elements for previously cataloged asteroids.
 
  An ancillary table lists the observing runs from which data are included
  in this data release, along with the dates of observation and information
  about the the sky coverage of each run.  A file containing the Sloan
  filter response curves is also included.

This data set underwent external peer
        review on May 20, 2004.
 
        Erratum:  The values of PROP_CAT_ID in the table are incorrectly
        given as 'ASTDYS_N_20000601' and 'ASTDYS_U_20000601'.  The values
        should be 'ASTDYS_N_20010915' and 'ASTDYS_U_20010915'.
