Survey
We have currently covered a major fraction of the northern sky. The survey already reveals a wealth of structure including very faint filaments away from the galactic plane. Because the survey is CCD based, it contains the full range of surface brightness from sub-Rayleigh structures to Rayleigh features (and brighter) near the plane, without saturation of the brighter features. The resolution of the survey makes it ideal for comparison with IRAS maps and X-ray observations, as well as HI observations in order to study the relationship between the various phases of the ISM and the warm ionized medium.
We are calibrating the existing observations and shall make them available as FITS images at our web site: truept
truept We have also constructed mosaics of several extended regions near the galactic plane. These are available as GIF and JPEG images at our web site. The mosaics are presented in a nonlinear display to show qualitatively the detailed structure.
