This file has a line for each object in the NYU-VAGC, in the same order as the lss_index file and the object_sdss_imaging file. It basically has some information in the calibobj files translated to ASCII.
The columns are:
[STAR_LNL] [EXP_LNL] [DEV_LNL] [ISO_A] [ISO_B] [AB_DEV] [AB_EXP] [PHI_ISO_DEG] [PHI_DEV_DEG] [PHI_EXP_DEG]
See the photoop documentation for what these columns mean. In this file they are only in the r band.
