#GaiaMission selection functions?

The only research today was discussion of projects with Daniela Huppenkothen (NYU), Lauren Anderson (Flatiron), and Jo Bovy (Toronto). One subject of conversation was the need for selection functions in analyzing Gaia data, both now and in the future. Bovy is working on a selection function for Gaia DR1 TGAS and we discussed how we might generate a selection function for the final Gaia data release. I have a plan, but it involves making a simulated Gaia mission to get it started.
