Description:
We present the results of Thuan & Gunn r CCD imaging observations of
the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) sample of emission-line
galaxies (ELGs), selected by the presence of Hα emission in
low-resolution objective prism spectra. In this work we characterize
photometrically and morphologically a total of 212 objects from the
UCM survey. This Paper presents the observations and basic reductions,
and lists a set of photometric parameters calculated for each UCM
object. In addition, for the first time in a ELGs sample, we have
determined the morphological classification of the objects using
simultaneously five different criteria.

Note (1): C31 was introduced by deVaucoleurs (1977, 'Evolution of Galaxies
and Stellar Populations' ed. Larson, R. & Tinsley, B., Yale University
Observatory, New Haven, 43) and is the ratio of the radii which
contain 75% and 25% of the total luminosity of the galaxy respectively
(C31=r75/r25)
Note (2): C42 was introduced by Kent (1985, ApJS 59,115) and is obtained
with the ratio of the radii which contain 80% and 20% of the total
luminosity of the galaxy (C42=5log(r80/r20))
