SUMMARY:Understanding the Milky Way galaxy - prospects from on-going and fu
 ture surveys
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the Milky Way galaxy - prospects from on-going an
 d future surveys\nProf. Sofia Feltzing\n\nGalactic Archeology is today a v
 ibrant field of research. The adoption and launch of the Gaia astrometric 
 satellite by ESA has resulted in many spectroscopic Galactic surveys that 
 aim to complement the Gaia data with information (for the fainter Gaia sta
 rs) about stellar elemental abundances, radial velocities, and stellar par
 ameters. This results in multi-dimensional data sets which will allow us t
 o put the Milky Way stellar populations into a much broader galactic conte
 xt, eg by comparing with models and galaxies at large look-back times. In 
 this talk I will review a selection of recent exciting developments in Gal
 actic Archeaology found via on-going surveys as well as look to the future
  and see what surveys like 4MOST and WEAVE will bring.  The proposed 
 surveys will be put into a wider context of past, on-going and future spec
 troscopic surveys and how this can all be combined to understand the Milky
  Way as a galaxy.
