| contents | We present the first comprehensive source catalog (UVIT DR1) of ultraviolet (UV) photometry in four far-UV (FUV $\sim$1300$-$1800 Å) and five near-UV (NUV $\sim$2000$-$3000 Å) filters of the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on board {\em AstroSat}. UVIT DR1 includes bright UV sources in 291 fields that UVIT detected during its first two years of pointed observation, encompassing an area of 58 square degrees. We used the {\sc ccdlab} pipeline to reduce the L1 data, source-extractor for source detection, and four photometric procedures to determine the magnitudes of the detected sources. We provided the 3$σ$ and 5$σ$ detection limits for all the filters of UVIT. We describe the details of observation, source extraction methods, and photometry procedures applied to prepare the catalog. In the final UVIT DR1 catalog, we have point sources, extended sources, clumps from nearby galaxies, There are 239,520 unique sources in the combined UVIT DR1, of which 70,488 sources have FUV magnitudes, and 211,410 have NUV magnitudes. We cross-matched and compared non-crowded sources of UVIT with the {\em Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX)} and {\em Gaia} source catalogs. We provide a clean catalog of the unique sources in various UVIT filters that will help further multi-wavelength scientific analysis of the objects. |
