The U.S. Naval Observatory Catalog of Positions of Infrared Stellar Sources (CPIRSS) was originally compiled in 1994 to provide astrometry at the sub-arcsecond level for many of the point sources in the 1987 version of the IRAS Point Source Catalog (NASA RP-1190). This was accomplished by the identification of IRAS sources with bright optical stars, checked by requiring the color V-[12] (with [12] being a magnitude derived from the IRAS flux) to be consistent with the optical colors or spectral type. Additionally, the K magnitude (2.2 microns) has been estimated. This version, completed in 2001, contains 37,700 stars and includes the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 astrometry and photometry which was unavailable at the time of the original compilation. (1 data file).
