Abstract: We present deep V and I photometry of stellar field in four low latitude regions of the Galactic disk. All observed fields are located at the western side of the Galactic Center in the direction of the Coalsack-Carina region. More than 105 stars are detected in total, down to a magnitude of V ~ 23.5. We derive hints about the scale height and scale length and star formation rate of the thin disk.
