This data set consists of 11,371 reduced geodetic optical observations obtained by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Network's Baker-Nunn cameras. The data were received on punched cards and placed on magnetic tape by NSSDC. The data were quality checked for reasonableness, sorted, and merged (20 logical records per physical record) onto a master tape. Parameters for each observation include station number, UT, right ascension and declination coordinates, preprocessing report number, and description of random error. A complete description of the data format may be found in 'Support Activity of the Geodetic Satellite Data Service,' GSFC-NSSDC, November 1965.
