description: '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.
