Need help resizing USGS map of moon, Clementine/Lunar Orbiter Options

[Antdoghalo]

Hello,

I am trying to find maps of the moon that have the least possible amount of shadows in them. The best I can find is the Clementine map but unfortunately, there are many data gaps in it. The LRO WAC and Kaguya maps on the USGS site have a lot of shadows on them.
However, there is a map that combines Clementine and Lunar Orbiter data but the problem is, my computer cannot even render this monster!!!

If someone with a more powerful computer could please help me get a version of this image that is 16384x8192 pixels, that would be great! I don't have access to Map a Planet to be able to get it.

Have you tried in using the DEM options in LTVT, where it is possible to show such features from any sun angle -- on the horizon or directly overhead (below,
shows Aristoteles and Eudoxes under various lighting conditions - west and east, while the second image is that of the South Pole).

For bigtiff sattelite images you need to use GDAL. You do not need a powerful computer to process large data.
Here is the gdal command you need to use: https://gdal.org/programs/gdal_translate.ht...anslate-outsize

CODE

gdal_translate.py -outsize 16384 8192 Lunar_LO_UVVISv2_Hybrid_Mosaic_Global_59m.tif Lunar_LO_UVVISv2_Hybrid_Mosaic_Global_59m_downsampled.tif

Or alternatively, if you'd prefer a graphical interface and/or you work with geodata regularly, i'd recommend using QGIS.

Edit: I had not realized this was an old thread, sorry
