Description:
    A new high-sensitivity HI survey of the southern sky was made south of
    Declination -25°, at the Instituto Argentino de Radioastronomia
    (IAR), on a half-degree grid in galactic coordinates. A total of 50980
    positions were observed. One of the goals of this survey was to search
    for high velocity clouds (HVCs). The HI profiles have been smoothed to
    a velocity resolution of 8km/s. The resulting rms noise falls in the
    range 0.015 to 0.020K. We have detected 6848 high velocity (HV)
    components.
