The European Space Agency
Mars Express: HRSC

The HRSC (High/Super Resolution Stereo Colour Imager) is a stereoscopic camera that photographs the Martian surface to reveal detail as small as 2 m. The images are used to produce a geological map showing the location of different minerals and rock types. The HRSC Principal Investigator is Prof. Gerhard Neukum, Freie Universität, Berlin, Germany.

The primary source for HRSC data is the ESA Planetary Science Archive.

Through a cooperative agreement between ESA and NASA, the PDS Geosciences Node is hosting copies of the HRSC data archives. The PDS Imaging Node also has copies.

HRSC Radiometrically Calibrated Image Data

  1. RDR data from January 1, 2004 through June 30, 2007 (orbits 10 - 4479)
  2. RDR data from July 1 through November 14, 2008 (orbits 4481 - 6253)

HRSC Map Projected Image Data

HRSC Orthophoto and DTM data from January 1, 2004 - January 20, 2006 (orbits 10 - 2598)

More information about HRSC is on the HRSC web site.

Online Tools

Mars Orbital Data Explorer - Provides search, display, and download  tools for this data set.

The HRSC Science Team provides the HRSCview Data Explorer, an online visualization tool that allows a user to view regions of interest in HRSC images at full resolution without downloading the products.

June30, 2009.  HRSC Orthophoto and DTM data through January 20, 2006, are now online.
