The advent of large-area surveys aimed primarily at time-domain monitoring of of the sky offers the prospect for important advances in the study of galaxy evolution. In particular, co-added images will produce a massive statistical database of high-quality multi-band photometry with the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the connection between galaxies and dark-matter halos.
With PanSTARRS and LSST in mind, we outline some of the observational tests of hierarchical galaxy formation that can be carried out with large photometric survyes, focusing in particular on tagged correlation functions.
We consider issues of depth, sky area, photometric accuracy, and spatial resolution, and discuss possible complementary observations from other facilities.
