This volume presents the results of the Astrographic Catalogue project undertaken at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich. Focusing on the section from Declination +64 to +90, it meticulously documents photographic observations and measurements of stars as part of a broader international effort to map the heavens with unprecedented accuracy at the beginning of the 20th century. Compiled under the direction of William Henry Mahoney Christie, the Astronomer Royal, this catalogue offers invaluable data for astronomers, historians of science, and researchers interested in the historical development of celestial cartography and observational astronomy. The Astrographic Catalogue 1900.0 Greenwich Section Dec. +64 to 90 stands as a testament to the dedication and precision of early astronomical surveys and remains a vital resource for understanding our evolving knowledge of the universe.
