Hi Everyone. I am starting a thread for discussions of the many ways people are interacting with Perseverance (and potentially other missions). These subjects are getting spread around other threads and maybe getting in the way of basic mission updates etc., so this is a place to bring this together. Feel free to contribute to it.
I am going to start by asking about panoramas - what's the best way to do this with Perseverance images, especially Navcam images from every end of drive? Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

In anticipation of flight 6, I updated https://bit.ly/PercyMAP with a slightly improved landing location in air field B, and a button to switch to the helicopter's view perspective as it is flying. Zooming in and out still works while flying.
The flight paths are pretty accurate but the changes in view orientations are just proof of concept to provide a sense what the helicopter sees. With flight 6 it will be time to make a new base map since the trip will go beyond what is currently shown. It could be just an addition, or a shifted map to save resources since I want to maintain the DEM as high resolution as possible. -------------------- --

This has now the effect that the rover drives off the map. Clearly. time to update the base map. Or perhaps a good opportunity to start over and refactor which would be very needed. -------------------- --
