Description
The study if the large scale structure and properties of the Milky Way has always walked hand in hand with the availability of photometric and spectroscopic large scale surveys. Using the data from programs as 2MASS or UKIDSS, we show how we can derive large scale properties of our Galaxy, such as the behavior of the interstellar extinction or the spatial distribution of the stellar content of the inner Milky Way.
