Notes. The KiDS+VIKING-450 survey is split into five tomographic bins. We use VVDS/DEEP2 as the target sample and COSMOS as the training one. In the top part of the table, photo-z are selected with σzp < 0.3, while the bottom parts show a selection at σzp < 0.6 and σzp < 1.2. The fraction of galaxies kept after this selection is also shown (‘% kept’). We apply the same definition as Wright et al. (2020) to define the loss of photometric sources (their Eq. (1)), including shear weights.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
