The DENIS survey will survey the southern sky in the near-IR J (1.2 micron) and K (2.2 microns) bands at 3” resolution and to limiting magnitudes in J and K of respectively 16 and 14.5 (lmJy in both cases), and at 1” resolution in the red I band (0.9 microns). Astrophysical motivation is provided by basic problems concerning structure and evolution of galaxies, of types ranging from our own to active galaxies, and concerning specific stellar populations including stars with low temperature photospheres, those still embedded in their protostellar envelopes, and those currently losing mass on the AGB.
