Scientific paper

Topographic contour maps of Mars were compiled by the synthesis of data acquired from various scientific experiments of the Mariner 9 mission in 1971, which included topographic information derived from different sources, such as S-band radio-occultation, the UVS-ultraviolet spectrometer, the IRR-infrared radiometer, the IRIS-infrared interferometer spectrometer and television imagery, as well as radar information collected by Earth-based observatories at Goldstone, Haystack and Arecibo. The entire planet was mapped at scales of 1:25,000,000 and 1:5,000,000 using the non-imagery topographic data.
