Description
We have cross-correlated 2MASS and DENIS point sources in 17 galactic
fields in order to find systematic astrometric or photometric shifts
between the surveys. No significant differences have been found between
the data of the two filters in common (J and K_s). This allows to
combine data from the two surveys for a further analysis of galactic
structure via star counts.
