This 22 MHz radio continuum survey covers ~73% of the sky between declination -28° and +80°, derived from observations with the radiotelescope at the Dominion Radio Astrophyical Observatory (DRAO), at a resolution of 1.1°x1.7°secant(zenith angle). Units of the map are KTB
.
The Q and U maps are the combination of the 26-m DRAO (Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory) and the 30-m Villa Elisa polarization survey, at 1.4 GHz (21 cm), with an angular resolution of 36'. Units of the maps are mKTB
.
The Villa Elisa 30-m telescope was used to map the southern sky simultaneously in continuum and linear polarization, yielding a fully sampled map of the 21cm linearly polarized emission for declinations between -10 and -90 degrees. Data in the overlap region between -10 and -27 degrees was used to match the Villa Elisa survey's zero-level with that of the DRAO 1.4 GHz linear polarization survey.
