Due to the composite nature of the map COMMENT and processing used to render a uniform S/N appearance, the user is COMMENT cautioned that angular resolution and sensitivity vary across the map.COMMENT Survey data are limited to Galactic latitudes |b|<32 deg., with COMMENT roughly half of that area containing observations. COMMENT To create this file, the velocity-integrated brightness temperature COMMEN map, W(CO), was obtained from the CfA Millimeter Wave Group website COMMENT (see below) and then interpolated onto a HEALPix grid with Nside=512.
