A third thing is creating my own reconstruction photogrammically from the raw images from the ONC-T camera (I presume that is the best camera). I presume there are more images than the set from Romans animated GIF at 6pm which could be used for a reconstruction.

Does anyone have contacts in JAXA who I could talk to about acquiring the raw data images to use? I'm hoping to make a better map and then create another Cylindrical map from that which is high detail and covers the entire asteroid.


In addition I have also create an Interactive version of Ryugu in an Asteroid Viewer app I'm developing with the ability to fade between maps and fade labels in and out with a scale bar. Eventually I'll plan to move that tool to be online and I'll post up a link here when that is finalised.

Thanks for any assistance

I should pass on a thankyou to everyone in this sub-forum as well. The amount of useful information in these pages has been fantastic

I was going to post up the highlighted map but I'll wait until I can work out how to upload something in the post properly.

I have added my original map to the Shape File from SBMT which you can view here: Ryugu 3D Model

I'm keen to get access to other data to add to this:

• Colour Topography (Phil did you create this or did you get it from JAXA?)
• Thermal map in Cylindrical projection
• Gravity Map in Cylindrical projection

Hello all. I'm Wesley Lamont and I've started doing some work on Ryugu for some researchers here at Curtin University and thought I would share it with all of you and ask for some advice and contacts.

Thanks to the animated GIF from Roman with the High resolution images at 6km I have created a higher resolution map of Ryugu I originally aligned to your map Roman but them moved it to the map from JAXA. The upper region of the higher resolution area isn't accurate as that should be stretched across the Norther Pole which isn't correct in my map. The core details align very well to the Shape File from the Small Bodies Measurement Tool. I'll post up a heavily compressed version. If anyone wants the raw image let me know and I can send that to you.

I'm not sure if this is good enough to publish but I thought the best person to ask would be Phil Stooke who I see you are active in this group (I don't know how or if I can tag people in a post here). I also created a map with the regions in prominent Craters highlighted but I'll have to post that separately.

Hmm attaching the image seemed to fail. I'm obviously doing something wrong which I can't quite work out.
