Data gathered on the solar right ascension, declination, and the semi-diameter in order to develop correction terms are reported. The readings were made over a two week period with the CERGA astrolabe, an instrument with a 0.3 arcsec accuracy. A total of eight observations were considered in terms of nonsingular least square matrix. The data were taken at the zenith distances of 30, 40, or 60 deg, and the corrections generated from a system of four equations are provided, including corrections for the zenith position of the sun.
