We are conducting a wide-angle Hα survey of the southern sky at CTIO using a robotic CCD camera. The survey consists of 283 fields covering the sky from δ = −90° to δ = +10°, with the same centers as those in the IRAS Sky Survey Atlas. As of July 1, 1998, it was about 45% complete. When all the images are obtained and fully processed, the survey will be made available to the scientific community on the web and on CD-ROM.
