Abstract
Next-generation continuum surveys will be strongly constrained by dynamic range and
confusion. For example, the ASKAP-EMU (Evolutionary Map of the Universe) project will map
75% of the sky at 20cm to a sensitivity of 10 μJy – some 45 times deeper than NVSS, and is
likely to be challenged by issues of confusion, cross-identification, and dynamic range. Here we
describe the survey, the issues, and the steps that can be taken to overcome them. We also
explore ways of using multiwavelength data to penetrate well beyond the classical confusion
limit, using multiwavelength data, and an innovative outreach approach to cross-identification
