Most importantly, the bolometric fluxes and angular radii reported here for a total of 498 planet host stars - with median accuracies of 1.7 % and 1.8 %, respectively - serve as a fundamental dataset to permit the re-determination of transiting planet radii and masses with the Gaia second data release to ~ 3 % and ~ 5 % accuracy, better than currently published precisions, and determined in an entirely empirical fashion.

These radii are determined using only direct observables - the bolometric flux at Earth, the effective temperature, and the parallax provided by the Gaia first data release - and thus are virtually model independent, extinction being the only free parameter.
