The complete set of observations from the first out-of-plane CO survey of the southern Milky Way is presented. A spatial map, obtained by integrating the CO emission over the entire observed spectral range, 333 km/s, summarizes the survey concisely and can be compared with gamma-ray, IR, and other continuum data. The kinematic information is summarized in two longitude-velocity diagrams, which represent in one case the CO emission integrated over the whole latitude coverage of the survey, and in the other, to improve the contrast for the distant molecular clouds, over a narrower latitude region within 0.75 deg of the Galactic equator. The information is unfolded in a complete set of longitude-velocity contour diagrams, one for each latitude observed.
