All *.gz files are compressed with the gzip program.

Format of maps in C-language is:

"%6d %10s %11s %7.2f %7.2f %6.3f %6.3f %6.3f %3d %2d %5.3f %4d %2d %5.3f\n"
 
with columns:
                                                                        V-band       I-band
DB_no    RA(J2000)  DEC(J2000)   X_ref  Y_ref    V      V-I     I     Ng Nb  sig   Ng Nb  sig

where

DB_no - number in the database,
RA, DEC - equatorial coordinates,
X_ref,Y_ref - pixel coordinates in the I-band reference image,
V, V-I, I - photometry data,
Ng - number of "good" measurements,
Nb - number of "bad" (removed with 5 sigma rejection alghoritm) measurements,
sig - standard deviation of "good" measurements.

WARNING!!! "Magic" numbers: 99.999 for magnitude and 9.999 for color and
standard deviation denote "no measurement". -1 in the N_b V-band column
indicates that the V-band counterpart of an object was found in more
than one subfield and the photometry was merged.


!!! Any presentation of the scientific analysis or usage of the data from
the OGLE-III VI maps of the LMC should cite the apropriate OGLE paper(s). !!!
