| Contains the positional information for objects in a number of coordinate systems. |
| The objects associate single epoch detections and the stacked detections within a one arcsecond radius. The mean position from the single epoch data is used as the basis for coordinates when available, or the position of an object in the stack when it is not. The right ascension and declination for both the stack and single epoch mean is provided. The number of detections in each filter from single epoch data is listed, along with which filters the object has a stack detection. Required constraints:

As a result, epochMean is not necessarily near the mean value of the PS1 measurement dates. | -999 | |
