Am I correctly recalling that Nasa/USGS was producing topographic maps of the Martian surface at least as far back as the Viking missions?

Am I correctly recalling that Nasa/USGS was producing topographic maps of the Martian surface at least as far back as the Viking missions? I never saw a contoured one, but I do have several of the USGS airbrushed Mariner 9 maps circa 1973-74...beautiful things, used to look at them for hours (esp. Tharsis). -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
