We have determined IRAS flux densities at positions of sources detected by our ISOCAM LW3 observations of the IRAS deep survey sample in the north ecliptic polar region [ApJS 63 (1987) 311]. Exploiting the higher angular resolution of ISOCAM to deal with confusion effects and properly correcting the fluxes for observational biases, we show that 60…
