Caption: Figure 9.

Left: pole-down view of the Galactic disk, showing the median observed WDIB of sightlines terminating in each 0.25 kpc2 pixel. Right: difference between the median observed WDIB distribution in the Galactic disk and that predicted by the best-fitting smooth exponential disk model, for stellar sightlines in each pixel. The lettered zones refer to the panels in Figure 10.
