Age vs [Fe/H] in the solar neighborhood

We should check at some point that we get the age distribution,
at a given metallicity, in the solar neighborhood (e.g. Schönrich & Binney)
right in the Stinson et al simulations.

1st GES science meeting


Had some interesting conversations at the GES meeting:

-- immediate things to do:
    * get access to the Edinburgh archive with Michelle and get the FGK stars out
    * try to cross-match this with PS1 photometer
    * distances should not come from only log_g; photometry has to come in.

--  mid-run:
     * get best distances
     * cross-correlate abundances GES-SDSS to get them at the same footing
     * we need to get the best proper motions!!
