\label{fig:glue}: A demonstration of how radial velocities were extracted ata  specific longitude and latitude Galactic coordinates along the filament  using Glue. First, using the "link data" function, we linked the Galactic latitude and longitude from the \textit{Spitzer} image with the Galactic latitude and longitude from the GRS or MALT90 fits cubes. Then,  points were selected along the extinction feature (blues circles in upper left image) and which are then automaticlaly  overlaid on the $^{13}\rm{CO}$ (GRS) or $\textrm{N}_2\textrm{H}^{+}$ (MALT90) fits cube (blue points in upper right image). A spectrum (bottom image) was extracted from the the small red boxed region around the the blue points (top right image), using the "spectrum extractor" function in Glue. Then, a Gaussian was fitted around the highest peak in intensity.
