Scientific paper

The paper presents data from photometric and spectroscopic observations of 1355 southern spiral galaxies and uses them to determine their distances and peculiar velocities via the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation. I-band CCD surface photometry was carried out using the 1-m and 3.9-m telescopes at Siding Spring Observatory. H-alpha rotation curves for 965 galaxies and 551 H I profiles are presented. The physical parameters, photometric and velocity data, distances, and peculiar velocities of the galaxies are presented in tabular form. The mean distance, systemic velocity, and average peculiar velocity of 24 clusters in the sample are given. TF diagrams are presented for each cluster.
