Michael found a nice way to correct vignetting of Navcams, as you know. But yesterday he found something thats still more amazing: Navcam IMGs that are called "MILPRAD Radiometrically-corrected RDR calibrated to absolute radiance
units, specific to archived datasets only" in the MER Analyst's Notebook! blink.gif

Here an (large) example what one can do with it:

These MRDs are already corrected with a mask that was made on Earth from the MER Navcams before they started.

Wow, Michael. That is an absolutely perfect stitch! The one thing that jumps out at me right away is that the slope of West Spur is at the same angle as the dip of the crude layers making up the hill. I wonder how close that is to the true dip of the rocks. That's the sort of info NASA needs to figure out the geological structure of the Columbia Hills.

Thanks again, Michael smile.gif
