I've had a look at Cape York in my HiRISE DEM and I'm struggling to get much out of it topography-wise.
It looks like it's pretty low, ~6 m high (is that right?!), with something (albeit subtle) going on with those features around the edge. But to be honest, this area is really pushing the quality of my DEM: it's on a slope to the East, the MOLA shot points are scarce around here, and the surface texture is a bit dusty for pixel matching. So, combined with the vertical precision of my DEM being about 30 cm (I haven't checked), I'd only take this profile as a general guide. But it's still fun nonetheless! 3D views (with same health-warning) to follow. Pete |
