Scientific paper

The distortion correction for the WFC, with which most ACS astrometry is
done, is filter-dependent, and is not sufficiently accurate for the most
useful filters to the community, F606W and F814W. We propose to derive
improved corrections using 1 orbit for each filter. A by-product will be
an astrometric standard field at the center of Omega Centauri.
