Has anyone played around with the HiRISE PDS release images yet? More specifically, color images? I have no time to do anything.

Nirgal, the image was downloaded from the PDS:
http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/Missions/MRO_mission.html And converted with the img2png tool. Mcaplinger, I still look at the THEMIS daily releases and I'm sure a lot of people on this board do. I have to admit I was a bit disappointed that the MOC/CTX daily releases stopped on msss.com. Nirgal's question in the previous post proves that more people hunger for more than the 7 CTX images currently on msss.com. Just dumping it all on the PDS means downloading and converting 50 Mb files, and that may be a bit too much for the average person interested in Mars. I'm pleasantly surprised though that the weekly weather updates are back: http://www.msss.com/msss_images/latest_weather.html Great. Now the same for CTX and I'm in heaven. EDIT: Doug, you beat me to it on the THEMIS images. So I'm not the only one checking those images as I suspected. |

I'll make you all an offer: there are plenty of people on this forum who can process the raw CTX images just as well as we can. Find some images you consider worth sharing from the current released PDS data, process and format them as you like, and I'll link to them from my own page on the MSSS web site and credit you accordingly. Do it soon and maybe we can get a CTX image on Emily's best of the year list, which would make me very happy. -------------------- Disclaimer: This post is based on public information only.
