Survey accessibility
To maximise the availability and usefulness of the new survey, the AAO, Schmidt Telescope Panel and H
survey consortium have upgraded the Galactic Plane/Magellanic Clouds proposal to a full AAO survey. This will ensure rigorous quality control of the survey and its timely accessibility by the community. The consortium also intend to produce a fully calibrated digitised survey database of 10 micron resolution pixel data. This will be released to the astronomical community as a CD-ROM atlas from SuperCOSMOS scans as soon as practicable. The CD-ROM atlas may be released in installments for faster community access. Film copies of the survey should also be available.
Up to date information on survey progress, examples of preliminary images, filter specifications, details of the H survey consortium membership and other pertinent details can be found on the www at: http://www.aao.gov.au/local/www/qap/halpha_pages.html
This survey should complement the radio maps from the ATNF and MOST, those of the new Parkes HI multibeam survey as well as those from mm wave telescopes here and overseas. The prospects for collaboration and comparison from studies in other wavebands are considered excellent.
