Abstract
We have completed the survey of radial velocities for all 2400 galaxies brighter than 14.5 at high galactic latitude in the northern hemisphere. This data set has already been used to derive a good measure of the local mean mass density, describe the overdensity and the dynamics of the local supercluster and to analyse the dynamics of groups and clusters of galaxies within the sample volume.
