Abstract

We present here two HII region catalogues with azimuthal resolution for the two grand design galaxies NGC 628 and NGC 6946. With the help of these catalogues, we study several properties of the star-forming processes occurring in spiral galaxies. We obtained direct imaging in the narrow-band filters centred at H{alpha}, H{beta}, [OII]{lambda}3727, and [OIII]{lambda}{lambda}4959, 5007 and their respective continua. After the calibration and correction of the data, we obtained for each HII region the de-reddened fluxes in the aforementioned lines, the size, the H{alpha} equivalent width, and, using two different empirical calibrations, the metallicity. Employing a method based on the Delaunay triangulation, a two-dimensional (2D) representation of the metallicity was obtained.
