We present preliminary results of an optical-UV survey of the North Celestial Cap (NCCS) based on ~5% areal coverage. The NCCS will provide good photometric and astrometric data for the North Celestial Cap region (80 < DEC < 90). This region, at galactic latitudes 17 < b < 37, is poorly covered by modern CCD-based surveys. The expected number of detected objects in NCCS is ~1,500,000. We discuss issues of galactic structure, extinction, and the galaxy clustering in the colour-colour diagrams.
