A synoptic observing program was undertaken at the Mauna Loa Solar Observatory, a site operated by the High Altitude Observatory to study the solar corona using the Mark III K-Coronameter. Daily polarized brightness (pB) images were used to extract three pB () azimuthal scans located at heights of 1.3, 1.7, and 2.1 Rq. Four final data products are given in this atlas: (1) interpolated pB contour plots for h = 1.3 and 1.7 Rq for each Carrington rotation; (2) shaded pB charts for each Carrington rotation; (3) standard zonal pB average values for each day; and (4) autocorrelation estimates of pB variation for equatorial and high latitude structure and an autocorrelation coefficient for an amplitude-independent, first moment of the pB distribution.
