The PINGS galaxy sample is composed mainly of normal symmetric face-on spiral galaxies, although lopsided, interacting and barred spirals were also considered. A large fraction of the sample has a rich set of ancillary observations in the UV, infrared, HI, IR and radio. The sample covers a good range of galactic properties and star forming environments with multiwavelength public data. For more information see the Publications section.
