Abstract

The Stromlo-APM Redshift Survey consists of 1797 galaxies with bJ ≤ 17.15 selected randomly at a rate of 1 in 20 from automated plate measurement (APM) scans. The survey covers a solid angle of 1.3 sr (4300 deg2) in the south Galactic cap. Redshifts have been measured for 1790 (99.6%) of the galaxies. The median galaxy recession velocity is 15,300 km s-1, and so the volume probed is V ≈ 1.38 × 106 h-3 Mpc3. In this paper we describe the construction of the redshift catalog and present the survey data.
