  Archival data from the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS) and the HI Zone of
Avoidance (HIZOA) survey have been carefully reprocessed into a new 1.4GHz
continuum map of the sky south of declination +25 deg. The wide sky coverage,
high sensitivity of 40mK (limited by confusion), resolution of 14'.4 (compared
to 51' for the Haslam et al. 408MHz and 35' for the Reich et al. 1.4GHz
surveys), and low level of artefacts makes this map ideal for numerous studies,
including: merging into interferometer maps to complete large-scale structures;
decomposition of thermal and non-thermal emission components from Galactic and
extragalactic sources; and comparison of emission regions with other
frequencies. The new map is available for download.
