Face-on column density map of our Milky Way model. Red circles are the observer positions and the Galactic center, while red dots represent the tangent points. The black dashed line represents the LOS toward the center (i.e., l = 0° in the Galactic coordinate system). Colored lines indicate the detected spiral arms for different tracers, and the blue shaded areas show the angular range of detections for each spiral arm.
