摘要：
We present here preliminary results of our wide-field study of NGC 3109: a low luminosity galaxy in the outskirts of the Local Group. Its edge-on orientation (which simplifies the study of a possible halo) and the possibility that it could, in fact, be a small spiral (the smallest in the Local Group) makes its deep analysis of major relevance to understand the properties of dwarf galaxies and the transition from dwarf irregulars to spirals.
