I'm just starting a new Deimos mosaic for use in my atlas. I will post it here in a day or two. This is the Viking mosaic I made a decade ago, with the two MRO images added. They allow significant improvements in some areas, especially near the prime meridian and on the ridge that extends west along the equator from 0 longitude.
