Description


Digitized UK Schmidt plate photometry, calibrated with CCD photometry, is obtained in 18 regions over the Bulge. Stars are selected for spectroscopic follow-up from with a carefully chosen colour-magnitude window, optimized for efficient detection of bulge K giants. Some 1500 stellar spectra are obtained with the AAT AUTOFIB facility. We derive a radial velocity and metallicity for each star, and quantify the uncertainties in these measurements. Luminosity classification is derived both by visual classification and by using an automated routine based on Principal Component Analysis. There are two basic results from this survey: the discovery of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy described by Ibata, Gilmore and Irwin (1994Natur.370..194I), and a study of the Galactic Bulge by Ibata and Gilmore (1995MNRAS.275..605I) The catalogue contains coordinates, photometry, radial velocities, luminosity classification and chemical abundances for approximately 1500 stars in lines of sight towards the Galactic Bulge. A detailed description of the selection of these stars, the methods used to derive the data, and the reliability of the data, is presented in the paper.
