We present the results of an investigationof the large-scale structure of the diffuse interstellar medium in the 2
Galactic Quadrant (
). 145 loops were identified on IRAS-based far-infrared maps.Our catalogue lists their basic physical properties.The distribution clearly suggests that there is an efficientprocess that can generate loop-like features at high Galactic latitudes. Distances are provided for 30 loops. We also give an observational estimate of the volume filling factorof the hot gas in the Local Arm,
