Here is a map of Venus I had put together (recall this collaboration with Emily L. and Calvin Hamilton), with the feature names now added.

Thanks!
Yes, I hope so too. Venus or especially its surface is still not well understood and available data are not comparable to that, which we have for the Moon or Mars. For example, Magellan's altimeter had pretty low resolution. Every altimetric measurement covers area 100 to 1000 km2 large. For comparison, Mars Global Surveyor MOLA's laser spot had size under 0.1 km2. -------------------- |
