Thought I'd start a new thread for stuff done with the HRSC DEM's....

I'm sorry that I don't share your delight. Not to shabby, but it's only animation, notting more. I prefer to watch real MRO's data (many times better) using IAS Viewer's functions "Create Waypoints" and "Waypoint following". For example, I suggest planning journey from west to east over Cerberus Fossae (PSP_003650_1900) with magnification 1:2. It's better and real movie.

real MRO's data (many times better) There's nothing 'fake' about this data. I've not made any part of it up - it all comes straight from the actuall data provided by the HRSC team. HiRISE imagery is many times higher resolution ( 100 - 200 x better resolution ) - but based on that argument, perhaps we shoudl take Themis, HRSC, CTX and MARCI and turn them all off. Only HiRISE provides that resolution, so everything else must be useless, right I don't think anyone is claiming this is the 'best' data, nor the 'best' way to look at it - but it's something new being done with a fascinating and growing data set. Scrolling around HiRISE imagery with the viewer is another way to look at a different dataset that shows us different things from a different spacial perspective. What's unique about HiRISE is that the imagery is immediately made sense of by even an uninformed human brain as it is of a resolution that we can interpret in real terms. What's unique about HRSC is that it matches moderate resolution and higher resolution elevation data. Now - DEM's with HiRISE imagery (which will hopefully make it 'out' at some point) would be the best of both worlds - astonishing resolution in every dimension ( except time ). But even that isn't the 'best' or 'most real' way to look at Mars. Doug |
