Great progress has been made using VLBI techniques to measure trigonometric parallaxes to masers associated with young, high-mass stars, in order to map the spiral structure of the Milky Way. However, large numbers of parallax distance have only been obtained over about half of the Galaxy. Here I discuss the use of 3-dimensional kinematic distances for completing the map with many sources well past the Galactic Center.
