Greetings folks,
ESA recently released map projected version of HSRC images, including orbit 1183 when MEX took a look at Meridiani Planum and Oppy's landing site. Which allows me to present you... the first color image of Victoria! It's created from the HSRC Red, Green, Blue channels which have resolution of 56.2m/pixel. Since it is just simple GIMP color composite, I wouldn't rather trust the colors completely, but still figured you'd like to see it I also tried the ESA supplied HSRC reader tool and the result was virtually identical, albeit I'm unsure whether one shouldn't apply some transformations. Trying to find some docs on it PNG version |

Not sure of the orbit number ( which is how the images are arranged ) but
http://sci.esa.int/science-e/www/object/in...fobjectid=34531 The center of the Gusev crater with the landing site of the NASA Spirit rover marked with a cross. The image was taken by the HRSC instrument in colour and 3D on 16 January 2004 from a height of 320 km. (Managed to do an order via the RSSD Esa 'thingie'. Dan - would your technique for radiometric processing of this stuff be suitable for public consumption.) Doug |
