The CICLOPS imaging team has put up a coverage map for the upcoming Tethys flyby.
The announcement is here. To quote the announcement: QUOTE The new high-resolution coverage will reveal details on the Saturn facing hemisphere of Tethys, including parts of the giant Ithaca Chasma canyon system. Imaging scientists also are hoping to obtain images of an ancient ridge east of Ithaca Chasma, as well as a section of terrain just west of the giant rift that appeared to be unusually smooth in Voyager images.
