This collection contains post-processed image cubes from the POlarization Sky Survey of the Universe’s Magnetism (POSSUM) Pilot 1 survey. These data products include Stokes IQU cubes and corresponding weight cubes for the 10 Pilot 1 survey ASKAP observations. These data are a combination of 10 separate but contiguous 36-beam observations centered on RA (J2000) 321.815° and Dec (J2000) −54.670°. Each field had an integration time of ten hours and the beams were formed in the closepack36 footprint.
