GOODS-South
(GOODS-S)
(moderate size survey field)
GOODS-South is the southern-hemisphere
survey field of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS), which is
10×16 arcmin, on the order of 1/20 square degree,
centered on the Chandra Deep Field South.
Several space telescopes surveyed it as
part of GOODS, and it has been used for numerous subsequent surveys.
Repeated surveying of such fields using different
instruments (or different instrument-settings) is a common practice:
doing so gathers additional data on the astronomical objects
within the field
