Scientific paper

Stereomapping techniques applicable to the processing of imagery from facsimile cameras on board the Viking Mars landing vehicles are discussed. Two methods of stereomapping are considered: use of a gnomonic projection to transform the digital imagery to an equivalent of a perspective projection by computerized rectification through image processing; and interfacing a high-speed digital computer to an analytical plotter so that rectification and corrections proceed in real time. Contour maps produced during tests of the Viking Lander cameras, as well as maps of the area surrounding the Viking Lander on the Martian surface, are presented.
