Two things..

1. Phil - YAY - bundle adjusted references for all the sites in the top two txt files!!!

And 2. Um....what does one do with those Bin's. Damn I wish I could code...if anyone knows a means to get that lot into any sort of appropriate 3D format they win the UMSF 'special cookie' award smile.gif

Just for fun - I bunged the XY data of MERB into Excel. It's not 'square' i.e. it's not accurate - but I think I'll go for something accurate in Photoshop smile.gif

Also - Z axis against Sol for Spirit...I've seen that graph somewhere else...but making it ones self from data is always much more fun - you can clearly see Bonneville, Missoula, West Spur and the return to Larrys Lookout.

Nice work with that last one, Doug. I need to refresh my skills with this grid plotting software, as I didn't create anything as pretty as your view. I'm working with the ASCII files, since they are easily accepted by my software. I can see that there is quite a bit of detail in the data; now to learn to bring it out as you have. I tried a shaded relief map of Endurance, but it was difficult to make it look well, and it appears to have a strange network of artifacts. I wonder if that is some of what they hope to eventually clean up.

I found it curious that the ASCII file for Eagle was huge...60+ MB, while that for Endurance was relatively small.
