The Mars 1:500k map bases are high-resolution black and white digital photomosaics generated to support the Mars Geologic Mapping Program. The Viking Orbiter images are used to map areas of scientific interest. The final products provided to the mapper include a cutline plot indicating image location and resolution, digital files, and a package consisting of a brownline, cronapaque, cronaflex, ozalid, and continuous tone photographic print. The mosaics are compiled by digital methods. The Planetary Imaging Cartography System (PICS) software, developed by the U.S. Geological Survey, was used to process the digital mosaics. The Integrated Software for Imaging Spectrometers (ISIS) software within the UNIX environment will be used starting this year to replace PICS. Currently, ISIS runs on SUN and Alpha platforms. The images are processed through reseau mark, and systematic and random noise artifact removal, radiometric correction, geometric control, and tone matching, to produce an even-toned controlled photomosaic. The maps are geometrically controlled to the Mars Digital Image Model and mosaicked at a resolution of 1024 pixels/deg or 58 m/pixel.
