Is there a sample for converting other catalogues to catsHTM format? #20

When I doing bright star crossmatching, I found that no catalogue can provide bright star sdss magnitude. The bright end is about 9 magnitude for APASS which is the main source of several other catalogue. After searching, there is a ATLAS-REFCAT2 catalogue compiled by Tonry published at 2018. They have small telescopes called pathfinder, which can cover the bright end of the sky. Also it includes PanSTARRS DR1, ATLAS re-flattened APASS, SkyMapper DR1, APASS DR9, Tycho-2, and the Yale Bright Star Catalog. It is a great help for photometry calibration in some cases. So I want to convert the catalogue to catsHTM format. Is there a tool for doing this? Or some sample that can be referencing. Thanks.

You will need to follow the description of catsHTM (there are several tools in VO.prep). Meanwhile you can try using: https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008PASP..120.1128O/abstract
