\emph{The ‘Analysis Plan’ section (see Section 9.6) should  describe the plans for data analysis, the data products that will be made available to  STScI and the community, the method of dissemination, and a realistic time line.}  One of the most powerful observational tools for constraining the physics governing galaxy formation and evolution is morphology. The structural features of a galaxy are known to have close relationships with its physical properties; eg. the link between star formation rate and Hubble type (references) or spiral arms(), bars and AGN (), bars and gas fraction (), [lots more possibilities of examples.] It is known that the demographics of most morphological features are \emph{not}, in general, constant as a function of redshift. This is not surprising, given that key elements involved in the formation of galaxies are also shown to change as the Universe evolves, eg. star formation is known to peak at z~1 and drop steadily thereafter.  \begin{enumerate}  \item Description of previous catalog: GZH
