The "VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey" (VIPERS) mapped the spatial
distribution of over 90,000 galaxies at z~1, using the VIMOS spectrograph at
the Very Large Telescope, covering nearly 24 square degrees. It optimized
multi-band photometry and VIMOS's multiplexing capability to focus on the 0.5
< z < 1.2 redshift range, producing a data set comparable to local universe
surveys like SDSS and 2dFGRS.
