  Detailed 4.8- and 8.6-GHz radio images of the entire Large Magellanic Cloud
with half-power beamwidths of 33" at 4.8 GHz and 20" at 8.6 GHz have been
obtained using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. A total of 7085 mosaic
positions were used to cover an area of 6 degrees on a side. Full polarimetric
observations were made. These images have sufficient spatial resolution (~8 and
5 pc, respectively) and sensitivity (3-sigma of 1 mJy/beam) to identify most of
the individual SNRs and H II regions and also, in combination with available
data from the Parkes 64-m telescope, the structure of the smooth emission in
that galaxy. In addition, limited data using the sixth antenna at 4.5 to 6-km
baselines are available to distinguish bright point sources (<3 and 2 arcsec,
respectively) and to help estimate sizes of individual sources smaller than the
resolution of the full survey. The resultant database will be valuable for
statistical studies and comparisons with x-ray, optical and infrared surveys of
the LMC with similar resolution.
