The VOICE project, jointly led by Giovanni Covone and myself, employs ESO‘s VST telescope to carry out a deep and wide multi-epoch optical imaging survey of the sky CDFS and ES1 fields. Observations haven’t progressed as fast as we thought when we first set out with the project in late 2011, but the large amount of existing multi-wavelength data in these fields have allowed us to make the most of the relatively little VST data obtained to date.

While the first papers are now in the process of being drafted, today we mostly discussed possible improvements to be made to the data processing pipeline and plans for the completion of the survey.
