Two methods are used to identify stars that are most likely associated with the dSph, and these filtered samples of stars are used to map its spatial structure. First, following the method of previous contributions in this series, we utilize Washington M, T_2_+DDO51 photometry to identify red giant branch (RGB) star candidates with approximately the same distance and metallicity as the Sculptor dSph. Second, a prominent blue horizontal branch (BHB) population provides a fairly populous and pure sample of Sculptor stars having broadband colors unlike the bulk of the Galactic field star population. A spectroscopically observed subset of Sculptor candidate stars (147 total stars: ~5% of all Sculptor candidates and ~10% of Sculptor giant candidates) yields a systemic heliocentric velocity for the system of v_hel_=110.43+/-0.79km/s, in good agreement with previous studies.</description><source format="bibcode">2006AJ....131..375W</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/131/375</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/705/328">J/ApJ/705/328 : Abundance measurements in Sculptor dSph (Kirby+, 2009)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/130/1065">J/AJ/130/1065 : Members of the Sculptor dSph galaxy (Coleman+, 2005)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/363/734">J/MNRAS/363/734 : Sculptor dSph variables metal abundances (Clementini+, 2005)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/128/245">J/AJ/128/245 : M giant stars in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy (Majewski+,</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/110/2747">J/AJ/110/2747 : Stars in Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Schweitzer+ 1995)</relatedResource></relationship></content><rights>https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html</rights><capability><interface xsi:type="vr:WebBrowser"><accessURL use="full">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/131/375</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/131/375</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/131/375</mirrorURL></interface></capability><capability><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/131/375</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/131/375</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/131/375</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface></capability><capability standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/TAP#aux"><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap</accessURL></interface></capability><capability xsi:type="cs:ConeSearch" standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/ConeSearch"><description>Cone search capability for table J/AJ/131/375/table4 (Heliocentric radial velocities of selected stars)</description><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/131/375/table4?</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/131/375/table4?</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/131/375/table4?</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface><maxSR>180.0</maxSR><maxRecords>50000</maxRecords><verbosity>true</verbosity><testQuery><ra>14.7891667</ra><dec>-33.8484722</dec><sr>0.005555555555555556</sr></testQuery></capability><coverage><spatial>6/35543 35549 35551 35712 35714 35720 35721</spatial><spectral>3.5822022962738423e-19 4.272473093760679e-19</spectral><footprint ivo-id="ivo://ivoa.net/std/moc">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/131/375?format=ascii</footprint><waveband>Optical</waveband></coverage><tableset><schema><name>default</name><table><name>J/AJ/131/375/table4</name><description>Heliocentric radial velocities of selected stars</description><column><name>recno</name><description>Record number assigned by the VizieR team.
