The Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey (S-PLUS) aims to map ≈ 9300 deg2 of the southern sky using the Javalambre filter system of 12 optical bands, 5 Sloan-like filters and 7 narrow- band filters centered on several prominent stellar features ([OII], Ca H+K, D4000, Hδ, Mgb, Hα and CaT). S-PLUS is carried out with the T80-South, a new robotic 0.826 m telescope located on CTIO, equipped with a wide field of view camera (2 deg2). In this poster we introduce project #59 of the S-PLUS collaboration aimed at studying the Fornax galaxy cluster covering an sky area of ≈ 11 × 7 deg2, and with homogeneous photometry in the 12 optical bands of S-PLUS (Coordinator: A. Smith Castelli).
