The Cassini Imaging Science Sub-system (ISS) acquired many high-resolution im-ages (< 1 km/pixel) during a close targeted flyby of Dione in October 2005 and two non-targeted flybys in December 2004 and April 2007. We combined 44 high-resolution clear filter images with lower-resolution coverage and two images taken by Voyager cameras to produce a high-resolution global semi-controlled mosaic of Dione. This global mosaic is the baseline for a high-resolution Dione atlas that con-sists of 15 tiles mapped at a scale of 1:1,000,000. The nomenclature used in this atlas was proposed by the Cassini imaging team and is awaiting validation by the IAU. The atlas will be made available to the public through CICLOPS (http://ciclops.org) and PDS (http://pds.jpl.nasa.gov).
