A photographic RGU-photometry of 1810 stars down to the limiting magnitude G = 19 m has been carried out in a field of 0.29 sq deg near the globular cluster NGC 7006 (l = 64 deg, b = -19 deg). The possibilities of identifying main-sequence stars and late-type giants of both populations by means of the two-color diagrams are discussed. No interstellar absorption could be detected in this direction. Density functions have been determined for main-sequence stars and late-type giants of population I and for main-sequence stars of population II. The population I functions are compared with the ones valid for the solar neighborhood reduced to the galactic latitude of the field studied D(z/sin b). The luminosity function for main-sequence stars of population I witin 400 to 800 pc has been determined and compared to the ones valid for the solar neighborhood and for z = 200 pc. Finally, the color-magnitude diagrams of both populations are discussed.
