Description:
Arcminute-resolution radio continuum images at 408 and 1420MHz from
the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS) have been used to construct
a new catalogue of extended radio sources found near the Galactic
plane in the second quadrant of our Galaxy. In addition
cross-identifications are made with other major radio catalogues and
information is provided to facilitate the recovery of CGPS image data
associated with each catalogued source.
