The form on this Web page allows specifying a celestial position for which the full 14x14 degree VLSS FITS image is desired. This avoids having to determine which file is closest to the position.
The proposed VLSS radio survey uses the NRAO Very Large Array telescope and when complete will cover the sky north of a declination of -30 degrees at a frequency of 74 MHz (4 meters wavelength). It has a resolution of 80" and an RMS noise around 100 mJy. The VLSS survey is being conducted by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory and The Naval Research Lab. Partial observations are now available. For detailed general instructions click here or for more about a form entry click on its label.
A postage stamp server which returns FITS or jpeg files of limited regions from VLSS images is also available.
