Description:
We have obtained short HI observations of 60 late type spiral galaxies
with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). Several HI
properties are presented, including the radial surface density
distribution of HI and a position-velocity map. When possible these
are compared to those measured from single-dish observations. We
confirm earlier results that there is no serious systematic difference
between the WSRT and single-dish observations in total flux and
linewidths.

Note (1): The HI profile linewidths are defined as the radial velocity
differences between the high and low velocity edges, measured
at the signal levels equal to 20 and 50% of:
Method 1: the peak flux of the profile (e.g. Tully 1988;
Bottinelli et al. 1990)
Method 2: the peak fluxes in each half of the profile, separately;
Method 3: the average of the peak fluxes in the two halves of
the profile (e.g. Sullivan et al. 1981; Bothun et al. 1985)
Method 4: the mean flux of the profile (e.g. Haynes and Giovanelli
1984; Bicay and Giovanelli 1986)
Note (2): W20 = the 20% level linewidth
W50 = the 50% level linewidth
Note (3): Wl = Wl,obs - Fl(r) = Wl,obs + (a x l + b) x r
