I describe plans to use the NDWFS results in conjunction with the overlapping FLAMINGOS Extragalactic Survey to study the locally-observed density-morphology relation at high redshifts for ~300,000 galaxies. With the broad range of wavelengths available (from B to Ks), we will be able to use photometric information to estimate redshifts and morphologies (using eigenspectral techniques). The results should help us distinguish between competing theories of galaxy evolution and possibly test detailed predictions of models in an LCDM universe. I also describe preliminary work with the SPICES survey, which has served me as a prototype for the main study.
