We use SDSS photometry of 73 million stars to simultaneously obtain best-fit main-sequence stellar energy distribution (SED) and amount of dust extinction along the line of sight towards each star. Using a subsample of 23 million stars with…
The Two Micron All Sky Survey, along with the Stellar Population Synthesis Model of the Galaxy, developed in Besancon, is used to calculate the extinction distribution along different lines of sight. By combining many lines of sight, the…
We present three dimensional maps in monochromatic extinction $A_{\rm 0}$ and the extinction parameter $R_0$ within a few degrees of the Galactic plane. These are inferred using photometry from the Pan-STARRS1 and Spitzer Glimpse surveys of…
We have constructed a full-sky map of the far-infrared suitable for measuring Galactic reddening and extinction (Schlegel, Finkbeiner & Davis 1998: SFD). The SFD map is based upon extensive re-analysis of data from the COBE/DIRBE and IRAS…
We compare the most successful and widely used map of Galactic dust extinction, provided by Schlegel, Finkbeiner & Davis (1998; hereafter SFD), to the galaxy number counts in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometric/spectroscopic DR4…
Three dimensional interstellar extinction maps provide a powerful tool for stellar population analysis. We use data from the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea survey together with the Besan\c{c}on stellar population synthesis model of the…
Using a grid of empirically calibrated synthetic spectra developed in our previous study, we construct an all-sky 3D extinction map from the large collection of low-resolution XP spectra in Gaia DR3. Along each line of sight, with an area…
We investigate reddening by Milky Way dust in the low-extinction regime of $E_{B-V}<0.15$. Using over 50,000 QSOs at $0.5<z<2.5$ from the SDSS DR7 QSO Catalogue we probe the residual SDSS colours after dereddening and correcting for the…
We have applied the method of star counts with Wolf diagrams to determine the interstellar extinction in five Galactic cirri in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Stripe 82. For this purpose, we have used the photometry of stars in the GALEX…
We are studying the column density distribution of all nearby giant molecular clouds. As part of this project we generated several all sky extinction maps. They are calculated using the median near infrared colour excess technique applied…

3D maps of the extinction density in the Galaxy can be built through the inversion of catalogues of distance-extinction pairs for individual target stars. The spatial resolution of the maps that can be achieved increases with the spatial…
