On the basis of about 40 000 optical observations of the Sun and major planets obtained with 33 meridian and photographic instruments during last 3 decades a comparative consistency analysis of old and new ephemerides with these observations has been made.
For the inner planets significant improvement in RA is confirmed while in DEC it is less apparent. For outer planets the improvement is strongly marked in DEC for Jupiter and Saturn and espesially for Neptune in both coordinates. Significant systematic differences between meridian and photographic observations are detected.
