Description:
    We performed a photometric study of globular clusters around the
    isolated elliptical galaxy NGC 821. B, V and R-band photometry come
    from the Mini-Mosaic imager on the 3.5-m Wisconsin Indiana Yale NOAO
    (WIYN) telescope. Observations were conducted between
    November 30 - December 2, 2005. Average seeing conditions were ∼0.7".

    Two Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide-Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2)
    fields were analysed in the V and I-bands. Objects in this catalogue
    are the globular cluster candidates according to the selection
    criteria detailed in the journal article.

    Astrometric solution is from USNO-B stars. Note the center of NGC 821
    on this system is located at 02:08:21.118 +10:59:42.21. Photometry has
    been corrected for Galactic extinction and we used a distance modulus
    of m-M=31.75 in our analysis.
