The BATC (Beijing-Arizona-Taipei-Connecticut) intermediate-band 15-filter photometry system has been tested by using the Michigan Curtis Schmidt telescope at CTIO taking 1-deg fields around NGC 288, SA 92, 94, 95, Lp 543-32/33. BVRI and uvby H-beta filter observations of these same fields were also made using the 0.9-m CTIO telescope. The main purpose of these observations is to compare the results from the standard filter color systems (UBVRI and ubvy, H-beta) to those we can construct from the BATC filter system. These fields were chosen based on available filter color data in those systems. The BATC data are being taken on a Schmidt telescope similar to that at CTIO, so that these observations can provide an independent source of calibration for the BATC data. This is a report on the status of this study.
