Distribution of the detected sources binned in Galactic latitude. The gray histogram corresponds to all detected sources, the blue line shows those lying in the Ist Galactic quadrant, and red line shows sources from the IVth quadrant. The dashed line shows the function 400e−|b|/0.32° suggesting a 0.32° scale height for the ATLASGAL sources. Dashed colored lines correspond to the peak position of the Ist and IVth quadrant source distributions. The green line shows the normalized distribution of star-forming ATLASGAL to the total number of sources.
