ODE - Basemap Details |
|
The Orbital Data Explorer map interface provides access to a number of different basemaps of Mars, Mercury, Venus, and Earth's moon.
The basemap mosaics were produced by different institutions. The image mosaics were further processed into a standard GIS compatible format by USGS staff. They are available through the Mars, Mercury, Venus, and Moon folders of the USGS site ftp://pdsimage2.wr.usgs.gov/pub/pigpen/. The maps with Simple Cylindrical projection centered at 0 longitude were used in ODE without any changes. These maps were re-projected to different projections using ArcGIS tools for different mapping purpose of ODE. The other three projections used in ODE maps are Simple Cylindrical projection with center at 180 longitudes, north polar stereographic projection, and south polar stereographic projection. Maps in the polar stereographic projections are cut from 60N to 90N or 60S to 90S latitudes range.

Mercury Orbital Data Explorer Basemaps
The map was created using MESSENGER orbital images that were released by NASA's Planetary Data System (PDS) on March 8, 2012. The images cover the first six months of MESSENGER orbital operations. The mosaics are composed of MDIS Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) images and Wide Angle Camera (WAC) images acquired in the filter centered at 750 nm. The map was created by NASA's MESSENGER mission team and cartographic experts from the U. S. Geological Survey.

This topographic data product was created at the NASA/GODDARD Space Flight Center. It is a shape map (radius) of Mercury at a resolution of 21.293 km/pix by 21.293 km/pix, based on altimetry data acquired through the Mapping Phase by the MLA instrument. The preliminary MLA data are the source for this data set. The ground tracks were interpolated using the Generic Mapping Tools programs 'surface' and 'grdblend'. The map is in the form of a binary table with one row for each 0.5 degrees of latitude, pixel registered. Map values are relative to a radius of 2440 km.
