Smoothed and logarithmic density map of all AGB candidates within the entire field of the IR catalogue. We see a rather significant excess of stars south-west of the centre of the galaxy. The map consists of 72 × 72 bins, 1.4 × 1.3 arcmin each. Contours are for 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 10, 15 density levels. The Battinelli & Demers (2005) ellipse and the four discussed outer fields are sketched along. North is up and east is to the left.
