Perseverance Route Map Options

[RAB]

I'm not sure about Mount Julian. Others have good guesses too like this one from 65dBniose:



This might be a better guess than mine. Also Fall River Pass is a good guess here. Waiting on your opinions....

Kind regards

Sol 764 map update


3D version. Spectacular view coming soon.

As for the new names, the other possible position for the Mt. Julian is also valid. I guess in a few days it will clear out.
Fall River Pass is a new toponym to me.

[kymani76]

Map update for the last two sols.

[RAB]

Added Fall River Pass and both variants for Mount Julian to the list of labels.

Sol 768 map update. I'm still not sure about location of the new names, so I'm leaving them out for now.
I suspect that Mt. Julian is the height to the north of the rover's current position, as it is the only commanding height in the current workspace.

 mars_M2020_targets.txt ( 91.15K ) Number of downloads: 104

I also managed to compile a list of targets from Mission Analyst for the first 655 sols with 1076 entries so far. It will take me some more time to map them, but for now I am sharing the raw list. I hope it may prove useful. It will be updated as the new info arrives.
(Please rename the file extension from .txt to .csv. For some reason the board disallows upload of the csv files.)

Have added all three guesses at the map and added A,B,C for each variant. One of them is the right one... list is updated.




Need some more time to check your list. Looks very interesting...

Kind regards,

Sol 770 map update with viewshed added. Rover and heli currently can't see each other.

[RAB]

Added "Echo Creek" to the list. Also the two abrasions (Ouzel Falls, Solitude Lake) have been added. I think we need a classification of names for the map. How about these five: Rocks, Sites, Areas (bigger sites), Cores, Abrasions? So the labels can be filered...

@kymani76: send you a PM regarding your list.

Kind regards

Sol 816 (48.66 meter drive to the north)
Annotated screen capture of the mission map - https://mars.nasa.gov/maps/location/?mission=M20

[PaulH51]

Drive to a possible sample site (40/0) on sol 818

I'm only posting these until the normal map posters resume sharing

(The drive data sheet is pulled from JPLs JSON URLs)

[RAB]

Added the two new names to the list:
Stone Man Pass @ 77.36852311534047 18.48343680739563
Onahu @ 77.36849897243695 18.48268692108409



Working on a list with label classifications to prevent the overlapping...

[RAB]

Try to figure out the new list data format (csv is working so far). Would it be better to have multiple list files (for each category) or one file with all types of labels and a data field with the category included?

My first QGIS map: I think it says that Mount Julian C is the right one.



Kind regards

Map update for sols 797-821, exploring vicinity of Echo Creek rock outcrop.

Perseverance is on the move again on Sol 836 (site 40/992)
Reported distance 150.82 meters (point-to-point 88.84 meters)
Distance between the helicopter landing site (#51) and the rover is currently 145.23 meters.
Still no clear LOS, but limited communications may be possible.
