Topography Map of Mars Target Name:   Mars Spacecraft:   Mars Global Surveyor Produced by:   Goddard Space Flight Center Copyright:  Public Domain Cross Reference:   PIA02035 Date Released:  27 May 1999 Related Documents Mars MOLA 3D Map Mars Download Options Name Type Width x Height Size mgstopo2.jpg JPEG 640 x 408 156K PIA02035.tif TIFF 2761 x 1759 9M Map of Mars' topography with zonal spherical harmonic degree 1 (COM/COF offset along the polar z-axis axis) removed. The projection is rectangular to show topography from pole to pole. Note the general similarity in elevation between the northern and southern hemispheres. The figure highlights the two other significant components of martian topography: the Tharsis province and the Hellas impact basin. Here we have not removed shorter-wavelength topographic features, including those comprising the dichotomy boundary scarp.
