Is there a way of getting this link without the gridlines? I have looked at NASA LRO site, the ASU LRO site and the Planetary Photojournal.
Am I missing something? |

Is that part of the global WAC mosaic? http://wms.lroc.asu.edu/lroc/global_produc...0_mpp_global_bw
Edit: no, it's not, I found the original image at the LROC site and I realize it's higher-phase than the global mosaic. What you need to do is to go here: http://wms.lroc.asu.edu/lroc Zoom in to the area around Tycho, then click the "Toggle Layers" button to turn on the WAC layers. Then be patient; it takes a while for the site to retrieve the footprints. Then download data to your heart's content. I haven't messed with WAC data before; I think it's a weird different format from NAC data. I'm not sure if IMG2PNG can convert it or not. -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

As far as I can tell, this gets you to the raw pushframe data, which is going to be a little tricky to work with. It seems only the global WAC mosaic has been archived, not any regionals at different phase angles. I'd email ASU and ask. -------------------- Disclaimer: This post is based on public information only. Any opinions are my own.

You mean like this? (I can email a less compressed version) Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

IMG2PNG correctly converts the WAC data into something recognizable but yes, the format is weird and a bit more complicated to convert than most of the other data IMG2PNG can convert. |

People who are interested in using WAC images might like this site:
http://moonscience.yolasite.com/lroc-wac.php It contains a gallery of processed WACs, many with spectaular low angle lighting. But in the text at the top of the gallery page, look at the link for a software utility to process the raw data. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

If anyone is interested, I did not have access to the unannotated image. I just stripped out the grid using Photoshop and a bit of magic.
