The Northern VLA Sky Survey (NVSS):
This is a radio continuum survey covering the sky north of -40 deg declination.
The survey has a great postage stamp server located at

The NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Data Base (NED):
This is built around a master list of extragalactic objects for which
cross-identifications of names have been established, accurate
positions and redshifts entered to the extent possible, and some basic data collected.
Bibliographic references relevant to individual objects have been compiled, and abstracts
of extragalactic interest are kept on line. Detailed and
referenced photometry, position, and redshift data, have been taken from large compilations
and from the literature. NED's data and references are
being continually updated, with revised versions being put on-line every 2-3 months.

SIMBAD:
The SIMBAD astronomical database, created and maintained by the
CDS, Strasbourg, brings together basic data, cross-identifications,
observational measurements, and bibliography, for celestial objects
outside the solar system: stars, galaxies, and nonstellar objects within our galaxy,
or in external galaxies.

The STScI Digital Sky Survey (DPOSS):
The Digitized Sky Survey comprises a set of all-sky photographic surveys in

th the Palomar and UK Schmidt telescopes. The images are available at
