Examples of fitted vertical distributions in individual cells. Each panel corresponds to a different cell in the XY-plane. For a given cell, the black points show the observed star counts along the vertical coordinate ﹩Z^{\prime} =Z-{Z}_{{\rm{m}}{\rm{e}}{\rm{d}}}﹩, where Z_med is the median Z of the stars in that cell. The red dashed line shows the best-fit model obtained in this work. For illustrative purposes only, the gray-dashed line shows the same best-fit model, but without accounting for the survey selection function and extinction.
