Drive during 1944, L-NavCam pan roughly stitched in MS ICE be should be good to help pinpoint the location. (the plan called for a 25 meter drive south)

I realise that MSL has lost chunks of memory from both of its A and B computers, and can only presume that this is connected to the recent swing to nearly all the new full frame colour images from the mast cameras (since the last computer glitch) being placed on the public server as compressed bayer encoded files. I also realise that its more than a little late in the mission to expect JPL to create a pipeline to de-bayer these before compressing them to colour jpeg's prior to placing them on the public server like they have done with the MAHLI images since landing. It's a huge pity as I believe it's an enormous loss in outreach, take the R-MastCam images from sol 2287 as a prime example, I can only imagine how wonderful they are with the artefacts I get during de-bayer.
So I'm hanging up my hat for the time being on MSL and will leave all the processing of mast camera panoramas / mosaics to those with the skills to do justice to these images. Hopefully they will put something in place for the images from the 2020 rover, fingers crossed they will be friendly for those amateur image processors like me or even the public who browse the mission image server only to find the vast majority of the images in 'apparent' B&W, without knowing that most of them are actually in glorious colour, but sadly masked by the bayer filters... |
