A catalogue of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) has been compiled using data from the Heliospheric Imagers (HIs) on board the two STEREO spacecraft as part of the FP7 HELCATS project. The mission was launched in 2006 and continues to provide data, therefore spanning a solar cycle over which more than two-thousand CMEs have been observed by HI. To these CMEs, we apply geometric models that make use of both single-spacecraft and stereoscopic observations in order to determine their kinematic properties. These include CME speed, acceleration, propagation direction and launch time. We describe the means by which this catalogue is compiled and a summary of the models that are applied to the CMEs. The resulting kinematic properties and their statistics are discussed in the context of existing CME catalogues produced from coronagraph observations. This is done with emphasis on how the different models we apply influence our results and how these differences evolve as the angular separation of the STEREO spacecraft increases throughout the mission.
