  • Abstract
    We constructed a program that allows one to use simultaneously and interactively photometric and astrometric stellar data (proper motion) to analyse color–color and color– magnitude diagrams. With this program, we are able to determine, based on photometric membership, the distance and age as well as the mean proper motion and radial velocity of several open clusters which had very uncertain parameters in previous analyses.
