Astrometric criteria based on the Galactic latitude (b) and their corresponding completeness, purity, and stellar contamination.

Notes. The Galactic latitude range of 0° ⩽ |b| < 20° is the Galactic plane. Due to the lack of confirmed quasars within it and the abnormal purity and stellar contamination, the final astrometric filtering on the astrometricCAT sources within this region was not performed. The last column lists the numbers of quasars (NQ) and stars (NS) in each sky region bin prior to astrometric filtering.
