                                   ABSTRACT

       We present an up-to-date compilation of the principal observed
    parameters of 558 pulsars, including positions, timing parameters,
    pulse widths, flux densities, proper motions, distances, and
    dispersion, rotation, and scattering measures.  We also list the
    orbital elements of binary pulsars and some commonly used parameters
    derived from the basic measurements.  Uncertainties are quoted for most
    quantities, and references to the original literature are given.
    Figures are used to illustrate the sample distributions of some of the
    more important parameters.  Machine-readable versions of the tabulated
    information are available, together with software designed to make the
    data base useful to others working in the field.
