All sky surveys of the radio continuum emission give us the basic information on the distribution of the nonthermal emission in the Galaxy. At metre wavelengths, where nonthermal emission is dominant, good angular resolution is difficult to attain. For many years the best surveys near 2 m wavelength gave us a picture of the galaxy with ∼ 2° resolution. At centimetre wavelengths, where arc min resolution is available, the intense HII regions dominate the radio sky. Supernova remnants have a distribution somewhat similar to that of the discrete HII regions and must be delineated by various methods in high resolution galactic plane surveys in the decimetre wavelength range.
