The DESI Milky Way Survey (MWS) will observe $ge$8 million stars between $16 < r < 19$ mag, supplemented by observations of brighter targets under poor observing conditions. The survey will permit an accurate determination of stellar kinematics and population gradients; characterize diffuse substructure in the thick disk and stellar halo; enable the discovery of extremely metal-poor stars and other rare stellar types; and improve constraints on the Galaxys 3D dark matter distribution from halo star kinematics. MWS will also enable a detailed characterization of the stellar populations within 100 pc of the Sun, including a complete census of white dwarfs. The target catalog from the preliminary selection described here is public.

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will execute a nearly magnitude-limited survey of low redshift galaxies ($0.05 leq z leq 0.4$, median $z approx 0.2$). Clustering analyses of this Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS) will yield the most precise
measurements to date of baryon acoustic oscillations and redshift-space distortions at low redshift. DESI BGS will comprise two target classes: (i) BRIGHT ($r<19.5$~mag), and (ii) FAINT ($19.5<r<20$~mag). Here we present a summary of the star-galaxy separation, and different photometric and geometrical masks, used in BGS to reduce the number of spurious targets. The selection results in a total density of $sim 800$ objects/deg$^2$ for the BRIGHT and $sim 600$ objects/deg$^2$ for the FAINT selections.A full characterization of the BGS selection can be found in Ruiz-Macias et al. (2020).
The DESI survey will measure large-scale structure using quasars as direct tracers of dark matter in the redshift range $0.9<z<2.1$ and using quasar Ly-$alpha$ forests at $z>2.1$. We present two methods to select candidate quasars for DESI based on i
maging in three optical ($g, r, z$) and two infrared ($W1, W2$) bands. The first method uses traditional color cuts and the second utilizes a machine-learning algorithm.
The DESI survey will observe more than 8 million candidate luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the redshift range $0.3<z<1.0$. Here we present a preliminary version of the DESI LRG target selection developed using Legacy Surveys Data Release 8 $g$, $r$,
$z$ and $W1$ photometry. This selection yields a sample with a uniform surface density of ${sim},600$ deg$^{-2}$and very low predicted stellar contamination and redshift failure rates. During DESI Survey Validation, updat
DESI will precisely constrain cosmic expansion and the growth of structure by collecting $sim$35 million redshifts across $sim$80% of cosmic history and one third of the sky to study Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and Redshift Space Distortions (
RSD). We present a preliminary target selection for an Emission Line Galaxy (ELG) sample, which will comprise about half of all DESI tracers. The selection consists of a $g$-band magnitude cut and a $(g-r)$ vs. $(r-z)$ color box, which we validate using HSC/PDR2 photometric redshifts and DEEP2 spectroscopy. The ELG target density should be $sim$2400 deg$^{-2}$, with $sim$65% of ELG redshifts reliably within a redshift range of $0.6<z<1.6$. ELG targeting for DESI will be finalized during a `Survey Validation phase.
APOGEE-2 is a high-resolution, near-infrared spectroscopic survey observing roughly 300,000 stars across the entire sky. It is the successor to APOGEE and is part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV). APOGEE-2 is expanding upon APOGEEs goals
of addressing critical questions of stellar astrophysics, stellar populations, and Galactic chemodynamical evolution using (1) an enhanced set of target types and (2) a second spectrograph at Las Campanas Observatory in Chile. APOGEE-2 is targeting red giant branch (RGB) and red clump (RC) stars, RR Lyrae, low-mass dwarf stars, young stellar objects, and numerous other Milky Way and Local Group sources across the entire sky from both hemispheres. In this paper, we describe the APOGEE-2 observational design, target selection catalogs and algorithms, and the targeting-related documentation included in the SDSS data releases.
