Comparison of distances, reddening (A_V) and age derived using PARAM versus RAVE DR4 data. Data are colour-coded following the difference in gravity. Differences for the various quantities are always computed as: Δ = RAVE DR4 − this work. Top left panel: distances derived by PARAM vs. distance in RAVE DR4 (computed as the inverse of the parallax). Top right panel: distance residuals (in %) vs. log (g)_seismo. Left central panel: A_V derived by PARAM vs. A_V present in RAVE DR4 catalogue. Right central panel: A_V residuals vs. log (g)_seismo. Bottom right panel: ages derived by PARAM vs. RAVE DR4 ones. Bottom left panel: age residuals (in %) vs. log (g)_seismo.
