The Gaia Era: synergy between space missions and ground based surveys
Abstract
The Gaia mission is expected to provide highly accurate astrometric, photometric, and spectroscopic measurements for about 109 objects. Automated classification of detected sources is a key part of the data processing. Here a few aspects of the Gaia classification process are presented. Information from other surveys at longer wavelengths, and from follow-up ground based observations will be complementary to Gaia data especially at faint magnitudes, and will offer a great opportunity to understand our Galaxy.
