Notes. Columns labelled as “Stras”, “Cahn”, and “Stas” correspond to the Strasbourg catalog, Cahn et al. (1992), and Stasińska et al. (1992), as well as “dC” and “dVst” are taken from Cahn et al. (1992) and van de Steene & Zijlstra (1994), respectively, while “dMa” from Maciel (1984). “Other” references are given in the text. When significantly different extinction estimates are available, the values reported for the distances are obtained using the absorption values in bold face. Errors are statistical originating in the linear fit to the distance extinction curve, except for NGC 6842 and NGC 7048, where we have also included the errors in the extinction measurement.
