TL;DR: The Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey has been operating since 2008 February on the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope using the AAOmega fibre-fed spectrograph facility to acquire spectra with a resolution of R ≈ 1300 for 120 862 Sloan Digital Sky Survey selected galaxies.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a joint determination of the distance-redshift relation and cosmic expansion rate at redshifts z = 0.44, 0.6 and 0.73 by combining measurements of the baryon acoustic peak and Alcock-Paczynski distortion from galaxy clustering in the WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey, using a large ensemble of mock catalogues to calculate the covariance between the measurements.

TL;DR: The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey as mentioned in this paper is one of the largest contemporary spectroscopic surveys of low redshift galaxies, covering an area of ∼286 deg2 (split among five survey regions) down to a limiting magnitude of r < 19.8 mag, and collecting spectra and reliable redshifts for 238'000 objects using the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope.
