Abstract:
    The VizieR planetary catalogue EPN-TAP service provides a selection of 
    catalogues containing data related to the Solar System and exoplanets. 
    VizieR (http://vizier.unistra.fr) is a larger service distributing 
    astronomical catalogues related to reviewed papers. Catalogues can be 
    downloaded in TOPCAT (sometimes as multiple tables), the external_link 
    parameter provides access to associated files.

    This catalogue is the result of a common effort of CDS and ObsParis.
    The table is conform with EPNcore standard to be queriable throw 
    Europlanet web site (http://www.europlanet-vespa.eu/).
