In the last 3 decades, infrared surveys have discovered new classes of AGB stars, and significantly improved our knowledge of their statistical and physical properties, often in conjunction with surveys in other spectral ranges (mainly OH maser lines). After a short description of the major past and present infrared surveys and their most commonly used analysis tools, their impact is illustrated by a few examples such as the characterisation of the populations of the Bulge and Magellanic Clouds and the distribution of carbon-rich stars in the galactic disc. In conclusion, further all-sky surveys in the still unexplored spectral regions between 2 and 10 μm are strongly advocated as well as the development of ground-based telescopes dedicated to deeper surveys and monitoring of the variability.
