Resumen:
The object of this research is to undestand th global properties of embedded clusters using near and medium infrared (NIR-MIR) data from a combination of 2MASS and Vista7VVV JHK filters together with data from GLIMPSE catalogue. In particular, 2MASS data were used for objects with K < 13. Photoemetric infrared diagrams of these objects and their surrounding regions allow to estimate the clusters main parameters and the properties of the foreground/background populations. We aim to use these properties to construct an automatic process to find unknown and new star clusters.
