Abstract:
We present a catalogue of galaxies for which spatially resolved data
on their internal kinematics have been published; there is no a priori
restriction regarding their morphological type. The catalogue lists
the references to the articles where the data are published, as well
as a coded description of these data: observed emission or absorption
line, velocity or velocity dispersion, radial profile or 2D field,
observed position angle.
This catalogue will be updated. Check for recent version at the URL:

Note on Name:
The Name has been adopted by descending the hierarchy:
(1) Usual name for the dSph and the Milky Way
(2) NGC (Cat. <VII/118>) name
(3) IC (Cat. <VII/118>)
(4) UGC (Cat. <VII/26>) or ESO (Cat. <VII/34>)
(5) PGC (Principal Galaxies Catalogue, Cat. <VII/119>) (Lyon-Meudon
Extragalactic Database) internal identifier, also acronymed PGC
(with numbers greater then 73097). The objects left unfolded into
this hierarchy are designated as in the original publication.
Note on PA: the value "999" stands for "not available", and blanks
mean "Meaningless"
