Description
The now completed INT photometric H-alpha Survey (IPHAS) is a valuable
resource to detect planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Northern Galactic
Plane. An area of 1800 deg^2 of sky has been scanned and hundreds of new
PN candidates have been discovered, from the direction of the crowded
and dusty Galactic center to the less widely explored Galactic
Anticenter area. The final goal is to provide a complete,
surface-brightness limited census of PNe in the Galactic Plane. We
present the survey and some preliminary results on PNe so far
identified.
