The Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS) is a ~100{deg}2, two- imaging survey in the RC and z' filters, designed primarily to locate and characterize galaxy clusters to redshifts as high as z=1.4. This paper provides a detailed description of the survey strategy and execution, including a thorough discussion of the photometric and astrometric calibration of the survey data. These catalogs, representing about 10% of the total survey and comprising a total of 429 candidate clusters and groups, contain a total of 67 cluster candidates at a photometric redshift of 0.9
