Abstract
I will summarise ground-based programmes using small wide-angle camera systems (e.g. SuperWASP) to discover and characterise transiting Hot Jupiters, and complementary surveys to discover and characterise cool planets down to the mass of the Earth by intensive follow-up of Galactic Bulge gravitational microlens lightcurves.
