XMM, the 2nd ESA Corner Stone of the Horizon 2000 programme, will be launched in January 2000. It is by far the largest X-ray satellite. In the context of the XMM Garanteed Time, we have initiated a Survey aiming at mapping the large scale distribution of clusters of galaxies out to redshifts of z ~ 1-2 and over an area of serveral tens of sq. deg. In this way, we shall be able to unambiguously flag the deep potential wells of the universe, as a function of strength (X-ray luminosity) and over a considerable volume. In terms of topology study, the survey will offer a unique data base. It is specifically designed to test the homogeneity assumption and put strong constraints on the presently most fashionable cosmological scenarios.
