Abstract
The Mittelman-di Cicco-Walker (MDW) H$\alpha$ Sky Survey is an
autonomously-operated and ongoing all-sky imaging survey in the narrowband
H$\alpha$ wavelength. The survey was founded by amateur astronomers, and is
presented here in its first stage of refinement for rigorous scientific use.
Each field is exposed through an H$\alpha$ filter with a 3nm bandwidth for a
total of four hours, with a pixel scale of 3.2 arcsec. Here, we introduce the
first Data Release of the MDW H$\alpha$ Survey (Data Release 0, or DR0),
spanning 238 fields in the region of Orion (~3100 deg$^2$). DR0 includes:
calibrated mean fields, star-removed mean fields, a point source catalog
matched to Data Release 1 of the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response
System (Pan-STARRS1) and the INT Galactic Plane Survey (IGAPS), and mosaics.
