EDR3 star counts in the anticentre region with the different data selections used. The HEALpix map is obtained by querying the Gaia archive the counts of stars within each HEALpix of level 8 (query 2 in Appendix A). The size of the circles to indicate the position of the clusters does not correspond to the size used for the selection which is much smaller. Several other clusters can be seen in the figure, and also the Triangulum Galaxy (M33, bottom right corner).
