I agree that the top part could be 'retired' at this point. It's very nice to have this version with the new grid, but it can probably be dropped after this. But thanks for all your hard work!

I don't know, I appreciate seeing the big picture from time to time. I wouldn't mind seeing the WHOLE picture every now and then -- all the way back to Eagle crater.

Thanks for the comments but for the time being I'll keep the top part of the map as it is now because (IMO) 1) it gives a sense of scale to the whole trek and 2) the lack of an absolutely known feature like VC would make the map just a route "from nowhere to nowhere".
I *may* reduce it in the future or even make a new one but only if/when it becomes too big to be handled by my home computer and/or graphic tools.

Me too : I prefer a global picture, because it shows where we started from. Thanks again for your wonderful work

I've seen "70 m" and "steady pace" thrown around earlier so...
70 m? unsure.gif

Looks like about 50 meters on sol 2050? As usual, awaiting corroboration from the master...

I hadn't gone to Google Mars in a while. It looks like a larger strip of HIRISE overlay is needed, or is it just me?

I've created an extension to the HiRISE coverage which you can find here.

Edit: ...at least you could, a while back. I think legittorrents may have gone down temporarily.

Edit 2: I've added a new tracker. smile.gif You can now get the torrent here.

Edit 3: I spoke too soon! Just seen this message on the tracker: "Le status de moderation de ce torrent l'empeche d'etre actif pour le telechargement. Une enquete est en cours concernant sa legitimite sur freetorrent.fr"
As the file is an entirely legitimate one that I made from a public domain image it should be fine. Hopefully they'll approve it.

Edit 4: OK this one has GOT to work! Use this! smile.gif

Wow, two map updates on the same day! (I was a bit late on the previous one)

I've been using your original three part set of maps, and they seem to work well for me. Would I find much of an advantage in downloading the new v2 extension?
