Abstract

We use the method of statistical parallaxes to construct the rotation curve of the Milky Way spanning the Galactocentric distance interval from 2 to 14 kpc based on observational data for young disk populations and refine the distance scales of the objects belonging to young disk populations (classical Cepheids, young open clusters, blue supergiants, HII regions, and HI).
