Description:
This survey consists of H I 21-cm spectra covering the southern sky
with absolute galactic latitude |b| >= 10 degrees and declination
<= -30 degrees. The observations were made with the Parkes Radio
Observatory (CSIRO) 60-foot telescope. The receiver back end was the
Parkes 64-channel spectrometer. The velocity resolution was 7 km/sec
(33 kHz) and the beamwidth (HPBW) was 48 arcmin. Drift scans at
constant declination were used with continuous integration in right
ascension for -80 degrees <= declination <= -30 degrees. For
declination < -80 degrees a grid of positions spaced 1 degree apart
in declination and one beam-width apart in right ascension were
observed. The survey was made in two parts. Part 1 included b >= -25
degrees, |b| >= 10 degrees and declination <= -30 degrees. Part 2
included b <= -25 degrees and declination <= -30 degrees. The scans in
Part 1 were spaced at 1 degree intervals in declination and the
velocity coverage was from -148 to +300 km/sec. The scans in Part 2
were spaced at 2 degrees and the velocity coverage was from -230 to
+218 km/sec. Each spectrum or record consists of a header followed by
64 antenna temperatures. The header contains the galactic longitude,
galactic latitude, right ascension, declination, central velocity
(LSR), and quality factor. The catalog contains a total of 9891
spectra.

Historical Notes:
A FITS version of the survey was derived at the Astrophysics Data
Facility (NASA/GSFC) from the original catalog of spectra. Of the
9891 spectra in the catalog, 59 were rejected for having spikes,
ridges, or bad baselines. (The 'quality' flag in the original catalog
is undocumented and its value does not seem to be correlated with the
appearance of the spectra; it was ignored.) The remaining 9832 spectra
were interpolated in frequency to a uniform central velocity,
then interpolated spatially onto a regular grid in Galactic coordinates.
For the latter interpolation, the cos(b) corrections for longitude
offsets were taken into account. Owing to the sparse sampling,
especially at high latitudes, interpolation over several degrees was
frequently required. The effective angular resolution of the FITS maps
varies from about 1 degree to at least 3 degrees. Latitude-velocity
slices were written in FITS format for each 30 arcmin of longitude.
Longitude ranges containing no spectra were not written. A longitude-
latitude map, integrated over all velocities, was also written in FITS
format to illustrate the coverage of the individual latitude-velocity
slices. Note that in many spectra the emission extends beyond the
velocity coverage of the spectrometer. High-velocity emission, in
particular parts of the Magellanic Stream, may have been missed in the
observations; see Mathewson et al. (1974 and 1977).
