Description
In this talk we will give an overview about how we plan to calibrate the atmospheric parameters and abundances of the first data release of MWM. To assess this accuracy and precision of these parameters, we need to compare the results of Astra with a validation set that represents well the different stellar types observed by the MWM and that is well-characterised. We are assembling and characterising this validation set by selecting stars with interferometry, good photometry, astrometry, stars observed by multiple high-resolution spectroscopic surveys, low-reddening and solar neighborhood stars, stars with asteroseismic information and binaries.
