Artemis, named for the Greek goddess of the hunt, represents an approximately 2,600 km diameter circular feature on Venus, and it may represent the largest circular structure in our solar system.…
The Greenaway quadrangle (V-24; lat 0 degrees -25 degrees N., long 120 degrees -150 degrees E.), Venus, derives its name from the impact crater Greenaway, centered at lat 22.9 degrees N., long 145.1…
The Lakshmi Planum quadrangle is in the northern hemisphere of Venus and extends from lat 50 degrees to 75 degrees N., and from long 300 degrees to 360 degrees E. The elevated volcanic plateau of…
Product Information: The Clementine Ultraviolet/Visible (UVVIS) mosaic of Earth's Moon is a radiometrically and geometrically controlled, photometrically modeled global Mosaicked Digital Image Model…
Viking Orbiter, MOC and MOLA data are being used to construct three dimensional landmark templates on Mars which can be aligned with a variety of data types for navigation on future missions and…
I introduce world maps with constant scale edges [cse], and show how cse encompasses both conventional projections and a new class of maps—world maps with constant scale natural boundaries [csnb].…
In many cases, the derivation of high-resolution digital terrain models (DTMs) from planetary surfaces using only conventional digital image matching is a problem. The matching methods need at least…
Geo Information Systems (GIS) are standard tools in the Earth sciences whenever different geographic data sets must be combined. GIS became increasingly popular in the field of planetary research as…
We have re-measured control points and re-computed a control point network for Saturn’s satellite Dione. Our network is based on 16 images (obtained by the narrow-angle cameras of Voyager I and…
The images obtained by the HRSC (High Resolution Stereo Camera) on Mars Express show excellent potential for topographic mapping of the planet. The derived stereo models agree with topographic data…
Positional control for MDIM 2.1 comes from a new geodetic/photogrammetric solution of the global Mars Mariner 9 and Viking image control network. The details of this network solution are described…
We describe USGS topomapping of Mars at resolutions from 100 m to 30 µm with data from the latest spacecraft missions. Analysis of NASA 2001 Mars Odyssey Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS)…
Launched in 1996, Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) carries two types of mapping equipments: Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) and Mar Orbiter Camera (MOC). MOLA collects accurate laser altimetry data…
Following the conceptual idea "from 3D camera to 3D view", the production of true-3D image maps for the glasses-free stereoviewing of parts of the Martian surface, is described. The image data have…
