  The Galaxy And Mass Assembly Survey (GAMA) has now been operating for almost
5 years gathering spectroscopic redshifts for five regions of sky spanning 300
sq degrees in total to a depth of r<19.8 mag. The survey has amassed over
225,000 redshifts making it the third largest redshift campaign after the SDSS
and BOSS surveys. The survey has two novel features that set it apart: (1)
complete and uniform sampling to a fixed flux limit (r<19.8 mag) regardless of
galaxy clustering due to multiple-visits to each sky region, enabling the
construction of high-fidelity catalogues of groups and pairs, (2) co-ordination
with diverse imaging campaigns which together sample an extremely broad range
along the electro-magnetic spectrum from the UV (GALEX) through optical (VST
KIDs), near-IR (VISTA VIKING), mid-IR (WISE), far-IR (Herschel-Atlas), 1m
(GMRT), and eventually 20cm continuum and rest-frame 21cm line measurements
(ASKAP DINGO). Apart from the ASKAP campaign all multi-wavelength programmes
are either complete or in the final stages of observations and the UV-far-IR
data are expected to be fully merged by the end of 2013. This article provides
a brief flavour of the coming panchromatic database which will eventually
include measurements or upper-limits across 27 wavebands for 380,000 galaxies.
GAMA DR2 is scheduled for the end of January 2013.
