I had an early meeting with Maddie Lucey (UT Austin) and Adrian Price-Whelan (Flatiron) about simulating ESA Gaia BpRp spectra. Lucey has this technology and can simulate stars with any parameters. We discussed making a fake-data set that we can use to test ideas and methods we would like to use after Gaia DR3 in June. We ended with a plan to simulate matched BpRp spectra, one for each APOGEE DR17 spectrum. Lucey is on the case. Let us know if you are interested in doing preparatory science with such a data set!
