Scientific paper

With its broader energy coverage, higher resolution, wider field of view and greater sensitivity, the Large Area Telescope (LAT) of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is dramatically increasing our knowledge of AGN gamma-ray emission. However, discriminating between competing theoretical models requires quasi-simultaneous observations across the electromagnetic spectrum. The TANAMI (Tracking AGN with Austral Milliarcsecond Interferometry) and associated programs provide comprehensive radio monitoring for Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope sources south of declination -30 degrees. Near simultaneous data from the Swift satellite and ground based optical facilities span the gap from radio to gamma-ray energies. We describe the TANAMI program in the context of this panchromatic suite of observations and present early results.
