We are using a sample of more than 50 standard very late-type stars, taken from Isaac Newton Telescope at R ~ 9000 in the 8100–9100 Å range, in order to develop criteria for spectral and luminosity classification of very late-type stars in the Gaia region. In this article, we brief in a few pages the main challenges on this issue, as well as the literature about it, and we present some preliminary results.
