hey fellas,
Just posted a new blog showing the topographic maps of Saturn's icy moons that I showed back at DPS in Pasadena last month. Ive been on extensive travel since then and just now getting back to some backlogged projects, including posting these new maps. They are global topography of the 6 larger icy moons (excluding Titan). There are some interesting comparisons and details to be seen here. Hope yall enjoy. A more detailed report will be published this spring.

Here is a greatly reduced version to wet your appetite. Note that all are scaled to +/- 5 km topographic range.
