1.Introduction\n\nThe precise surface brightness valueslisted for about 12,000 homogeneouslyselected galaxies in\"The Surface Pho-tometry Catalogue of the ESO-UppsalaGalaxies”(Lauberts and Valentijn

are thought to re-flect the effect of the diffuse interstellar  \nFigure 1:A map of the relative extinction inthe B band in polar equatorial coordinates.The derived extinction values have been av-eraged inside 3°×3°pixels and are heredisplayed using 1.5×1.5 pixels -someinterpolation has been applied to fill pixelswithout data(~5%of total).The credibility ofapparent structures can be assessed by us-ing the following information:the uncertaintyof Aginside one resolution element (inset boxat the lower right)is 0.13\",roughly corre-sponding to one colour step on the map.Thezero point is somewhat arbitrary,but a lowerlimi could be deduced by avoiding negativeextinctions in regions with a minimum extinc-tion (not at the South Pole)and a deconvolu-tion of the observed frequency

regions of the skythat may be so heavily obscured that westart to miss objects located behindthese regions.These heavily obscuredregions can be better traced by galaxycounts,a separate project,which

could unfortunately notbe done for the South.Motivated by therecent availability of the photometricdata in the ESO-LV catalogue,we haveundertaken some statistical experi-ments to see whether the data wouldallow an improvement of this situation.  \n## 2.The Technique\n\nThe hitherto most frequently usedmodel for the extinction in the SouthernGalactic hemisphere(Burstein,Heiles)isexclusively based on the mapping ofneutral hydrogen.Since this mappingwas done with a rather poor spatialsampling,the resulting extinction mapwas grossly dominated by interpolationsof data.Furthermore,using HI data re-lies on a constant HI-to-extinction ratio.The overall value of this ratio is uncertain  \nIB  \nAB  \nFigure 3:The idea of extinction measure-ments using the surface brightness of galax-ies in two bands.  \nAlthough the surface brightness of anexternal galaxy at a particular singleband should respond in a linear way tothe extinction in the Galaxy,such single-band surface brightness values are notgood extinction indicators,since theyhave a too large scatter around themean value(o≈0.6 mag).If however,we have a sample of galaxies withmeasured surface brightness in twobands(B and R for ESO-LV),then wecan take into account the fact that theyare strongly correlated with each other(Fig.2);as a measure of extinction ofeach ndividual galaxy,we can use itsdistance from the average
