Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey (BGPS)
The survey has been done using Bolocam on the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory.
The coverage is 170
deg2
along the Galactic plane,
with an effective angular resolution of 33“
at 1.1 mm
.
The HEALPix maps have been generated for versions 2.0 and 2.1.
Units of the data are Jy/beam
.
