From HAWC and LHAASO source positions the authors infer a total Galactic source luminosity near 1e37 erg/s in the 1-10 TeV band and conclude that unresolved sources contribute a minority of the diffuse flux over most of the sky.

abstract
The ground-based gamma-ray observatory VERITAS (Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System) is sensitive to photons of astrophysical origin with energies in the range between $\approx 85$ GeV to $\approx 30$ TeV. The instrument consists of four 12-m diameter imaging Cherenkov telescopes operating at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory (FLWO) in southern Arizona. VERITAS started four-telescope operations in 2007 and collects about 1100 hours of good-weather data per year. The VERITAS collaboration has published over 100 journal articles since 2008 reporting on gamma-ray observations of a large variety of objects: Galactic sources like supernova remnants, pulsar wind nebulae, and binary systems; extragalactic sources like star forming galaxies, dwarf-spheroidal galaxies, and highly-variable active galactic nuclei. This note presents VTSCat: the catalog of high-level data products from all VERITAS publications.

Resolved and unresolved Galactic gamma-ray sources
From HAWC and LHAASO source positions the authors infer a total Galactic source luminosity near 1e37 erg/s in the 1-10 TeV band and conclude that unresolved sources contribute a minority of the diffuse flux over most of the sky.
