  The `Local Volume HI Survey' (LVHIS) comprises deep HI spectral line and
20-cm radio continuum observations of 82 nearby, gas-rich galaxies,
supplemented by multi-wavelength images. Our sample consists of all galaxies
with Local Group velocities v_LG < 550 km/s or distances D < 10 Mpc that are
detected in the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS). Using full synthesis
observations in at least three configurations of the Australia Telescope
Compact Array (ATCA), we obtain detailed HI maps for a complete sample of
gas-rich galaxies with Dec < -30 deg. Here we present a comprehensive LVHIS
Galaxy Atlas, including the overall gas distribution, mean velocity field,
velocity dispersion, and position-velocity diagrams, together with a
homogeneous set of measured and derived galaxy properties. Our primary goal is
to investigate the HI morphologies, kinematics, and environment at high
resolution and sensitivity. LVHIS galaxies represent a wide range of
morphologies and sizes; our measured HI masses range from ~10^7 to 10^10 Msun,
based on independent distance estimates. The LVHIS Galaxy Atlas (including FITS
files) is available on-line.
