Nathair Facula Topography and Photometric Cube Data
This bundle contains regional topography and
photometric data for two locations within Nathair
Facula, Mercury. Both locations focus on volcanic vents
and pyroclastic deposits near 35.86 Lat 63.93 E Lon.
The data were generated using the Gaskell
Stereophotoclinometry (SPC) software suite with images
from the MESSENGER mission to Mercury. In addition to
the topographic heights of the Digital Terrain Model
(DTM), photometric data is aligned to and has the
same horizontal spacing as the topographic data. For
select Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS) Narrow Angle
Camera (NAC) or Wide Angle Camera (WAC) images, four
photometric data products are available; I/F
(reflectance), Local Phase Angle, Local Emission Angle,
and Local Incidence Angle.
One DTM represents heights
every 120 m and has a size of 130 by 130 km, while the
other represents heights every 60 m and has a size of 80
by 80 km. The two DTMs partially overlap.
The maps
were generated by J.R. Weirich, D.L. Domingue, E.E.
Palmer, and R.W. Gaskell., and funded by the
NASA Solar System Workings Program (SSW).
