Abstract

Gaia will also provide a comprehensive survey of Solar System objects. If compared toother large ground-based surveys, Gaia potential for discoveries of small asteroidsappears to be limited by its magnitude threshold for detection. However, it can providevaluable data on the physical properties of the observed objects. If compared to LSST,Pan-STARRS or other surveys Gaia is complementary and occupies a clearly definedniche on its own.
