The HRSC on board ESA's Mars Express will image the entire planet in full colour, 3D and with a resolution of about 10 metres. Selected areas will be imaged at 2-metre resolution.

Data description

MarsSI propose the following products from the HRSC dataset:

• RDRv3 : Radiometric Data Record, version 3, 1-channel JPEG2000 images with a LBL file
• REFDRv3 : map-projected RDR products, 1-channel JPEG2000 images with LBL file
• DEM : Digital Elevation Model

When loading JPEG2000 files in a GIS software, you should use the LBL as entry point to have proper georeferencing.

Downloading HRSC data

HRSC Imagery

From the “Maps” tab, zoom-in on your region of interest, you can display the THEMIS mosaic for more precision, and then display the "MEX - HRSC RDRv3" layer. You get all HRSC RDRv3 footprints that appear in purple. The footprint are regularly updated to take into account new data. You can use the “Select” button to choose the footprints you desire. You can choose several footprints by clicking several stamps, or by dragging your mouse to select adjacent footprints. You can also use the “Search” button for more options.
