We present here our ongoing VLBI survey of compact radio sources at 86 GHz, and compare it with earlier VLBI surveys made at this frequency. The ongoing survey will increase the total number of objects imaged at 86 GHz by a factor of 3--5 (with a baseline sensitivity of ≅ 0.1 Jy and image sensitivity of better than 10 mJy/beam). Such an expanded 86 GHz database will be essential for implementation of the VLBI technique in space and at shorter wavelengths. The survey data will also advance both observational and theoretical studies of extragalactic jets, since it probes those regions of extragalactic jets where radio emission reflects the dynamics and physics of the central engine of AGN.
