Caption: Figure 2.

NGVS survey area, shown in heavy red, compared to the regions covered by a number of multi-wavelength surveys of the Virgo cluster (primarily at non-optical wavelengths). The different surveys are indicated in the legend at the top of the figure (the light gray area shows the region covered by UKIDSS/LAS; see the text for complete details). Complete coverage over the entire NGVS survey area is also available in the IR, optical, 21 cm H i line, and X-rays from 2MASS, SDSS, ALFALFA, and ROSAT, respectively.
