The Edinburgh-Cape Blue Object Survey (Stobie et al. 1997a) is a southern hemisphere survey to discover hot, blue stellar objects brighter than B=18 at galactic latitudes more than 30° from the galactic plane. The main categories of object detected are hot subdwarfs, white dwarfs, blue horizontal branch stars, apparently normal B stars, cataclysmic variables and (stellar-like) active galactic nuclei. Over 50% of the EC Survey comprises hot subdwarfs.
