Abstract

The European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) has surveyed ~12 square degrees of the sky at 15 microns and 90 microns and subsets of this area at 6.75 microns and 175 microns using the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). This project was the largest single open time programme executed by ISO, taking 375 hours of data. A preliminary catalogue of more than 1000 galaxies has been produced. In this talk we describe the goals of the project and present a provisional number count analysis at 15 microns.
