Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) color survey collection

(green) and g' (blue) bands.\n The Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) Survey is an imaging survey in 4 bands,using the wide-field imager OmegaCAM mounted on the VST in the SDSS u', g', r', and i'-bands of about 30 degrees² covering the Fornax Galaxy Cluster and the infalling Fornax A Group down to a surface brightness limit of ~28 mag/arcsec² (1-sigma surface brightness over a 1 arcsecond² area).

FDS is a joint project that used the VST-GTO time of NOVA (previously called FOCUS - PI: R. F. Peletier) and INAF (as part of VEGAS - PIs: M. Capaccioli and E. Iodice).Original acknowledgement for data: Based on data obtained from the ESO Science Archive Facility with DOI(s): doi.eso.org/10.18727/archive/23 .
