I also think that Fourier transforms can help. It occurred to me that we may not be exploring new ground here. Sorry to sound like the unwelcomed guest, but has anyone considered that NASA/JPL/DOD/etc has already, long ago employed various scientists, engineers, graduate and undergraduate students to explore the concept of automatic terrain recognition? Surely the remote sensing industry already has software that can do what we have been trying to do.

Surely the remote sensing industry already has software that can do what we have been trying to do. Terrain classification for autonomous rover driving has been done. Several times. JPL, CMU... The DARPA Grand Challenge is a good example of this. There are much more sophisticated examples out there. Remote sensing people have the additional advantage of multispectral imaging, here we do not. But as fas as I know this has never been applied to Km scale planetary exploration.
