New data of the VISTA Deep Extragalactic Observations (VIDEO) Survey in the XMM-LSS field released
VIDEO is a deep near-infrared survey which targets ~12 square degrees over the ELAIS-S1, XMMLSS, and ECDFS extragalactic fields. VIDEO belongs to the suite of six public surveys being conducted at ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA).
In this release (VIDEO-XMM DR3) a total of 560 individual single-OB tile images and the associated single-band source lists are released. Those have been reprocessed using version 1.3 of the VISTA reduction pipeline. The data also include ZYJHKs deep stacks and catalogues in the VIDEO-XMM3 tile, along with YJHKs for XMM2. In the XMM1 tile the released data cover the Z and Y-band. To the 5σ limit, the Ks-band selected catalogue contains 368,277 sources with Ks< 23.5 (AB) over ~3 sq. degrees (two tiles).
Images can be queried and downloaded from the ESO Science Archive Facility while the band-merged catalogue data are accessible from ESO’s catalogue facility query interface. The VIDEO-XMM Data Release 3 is accompanied by a comprehensive description.
