Credits for the context images are as follows: MOLA The MOLA context image is a grayscale, shaded relief map created from the MGS-MOLA topographic data set. The resolution of the MOLA map is 32 pixels/degree. MOLA shaded relief maps can be obtained from http://ltpwww.gsfc.nasa.gov/tharsis/shademap.html MOC Atlas The MOC Atlas context image is a mosaic of images from the MGS-MOC wide angle camera acquired during the Geodesy Campaign of 1999. The MOC mosaics are produced at 64 pixels/degree. Full documentation and MOC mosaics are available at http://www.msss.com.mgcwg/mgm TES Thermal Inertia The TES TI context image represents surface thermal inertia values, calculated from data obtained by the MGS-TES instrument. Blue pixels have the lowest thermal inertia values; red pixels have the highest thermal inertia values. The thermal inertia values have been gridded at 8 pixels/degree. Full documentation and the TES Thermal Inertia map can be obtained from http://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/missions/mgs/tesspecial.html TES Albedo The TES Albedo background image is a grayscale image representing Lambert albedo values from the MGS-TES data set. The albedo values have been gridded at 8 pixels/degree. Full documentation and the TES Albedo map can be obtained from http://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/missions/mgs/tesspecial.html THEMIS Day IR Mosaic The Day IR background is a mosaic composed of daytime THEMIS IR images collected to date. Since the purpose of this map is to indicate THEMIS coverage in this area, no attempt has been made to cosmetically correct the images for variances in brightness levels. Areas without coverage are black. THEMIS Night IR Mosaic The Night IR background is a mosaic composed of the nighttime THEMIS IR images collected to date. Since the purpose of this map is to indicate THEMIS coverage in this area, no attempt has been made to cosmetically correct the images for variances in brightness levels. Areas without coverage are black. THEMIS VIS Coverage The VIS Cover background displays the location of THEMIS VIS images collected in this area. VIS images are shown as simple, gray-filled polygons against the black background.
