A classical task of crossidentification of stars taken from different catalogs becomes a nontrivial one in a case of very big catalogs with significant epoch difference and without proper motions. Some new conceptions for this problem solution are proposed in this presentation. Method discussed was applied for the Guide Star Catalogue with the Astrographic Catalog identification. More then 4.3 millions of stars were identified in both catalogues.
