The composite CO survey is contained in 720 latitude-velocity maps, for longitude 0 degrees to 359.5 degrees, spaced every 0.5 degrees. To simplify the construction of data cubes, the latitude and velocity limits for all 720 maps are identical: from -25 degrees to 25 degrees in latitude and from -299.7 to 299.7 km/s in velocity. The 720 (b,v) maps are followed by a single longitude-latitude map of the survey integrated over all velocities. For more information on this project, see the following reference: 1987ApJ...322..706D The images and related TeX files come from the NRAO CD-ROM "Images From the Radio Universe" (c. 1992 National Radio Astronomy Observatory, used with permission).
