VIDEO is a deep near-infrared survey which targets ~12 square degrees over the ELAIS-S1, XMMLSS, and ECDFS extragalactic fields. VIDEO belongs to the suite of six public surveys being conducted at ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). The first public data release of the VIDEO programme via the ESO Science Archive Facility, the VIDEO-XMM Data Release Number 1, Date: 25.07.2011, contained 97 individual (i.e. single-OB) tile images in the VIDEO-XMM3 field and their associated single-band source lists. This release (VIDEO-XMM DR2) adds 156 single-OB images in the VIDEO-XMM fields 1, 2 and 3. DR2 is the first release that includes deep co-added images of the XMM3 field including the associated single-band source lists and the resulting deep photometric catalogue where the ZYJHKs data have been merged. To the 5σ limit of Ks~23.8, the Ks-selected catalogue contains 198178 sources over ~1.8 deg².

Images can be queried and downloaded from the ESO Science Archive Facility while the band-merged catalogue data are accessible from ESO’s catalogue facility query interface. The VIDEO-XMM Data Release 2 is accompanied by a comprehensive description.
