An international workshop on Galactic Archaeology Surveys
The workshop will focus on Large Surveys related to Galactic Archaeology science. The goal is to bring together those involved in some of the past, present and planned Galactic archaeology surveys. The general theme is along the lines of What we have learned, What we are now learning, and What we will learn, both in terms of characterizing the Milky Way, as well as technicalities of carrying out successful large scale surveys.
To that end, we are inviting a representative sample of scientists involved in the major surveys and experts in Galactic archaeology to stimulate the scientific discourse. In order to maintain a workshop atmosphere with time for discussions, we expect the total attendance to be approximately 50 people, with limited space available for contributed talks related to the workshop goals.
