Preparing the modelling of Gaia products for Galactic structure and dynamics with mock datasets
Abstract
A series of workshops -- the `Gaia Challenge' -- has been initiated in 2013 to prepare the scientific exploitation of Gaia data. The first position and velocity observables from Gaia will be released early in 2017. Within this context, I present results from numerical tools developed to constrain Galactic structural and dynamical properties from pseudo Gaia observables (mock data).
