Abstract

The High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on the European spacecraft Mars Express is the first camera on a planetary mission especially designed for photogrammetric and cartographic purposes. Since January 2004 the camera has been taking image data from the Martian surface, characterized by high resolution, stereo capability and colour. These data provide an enormous potential for the generation of 3D surface models, colour orthophotos, topographic and thematic maps, and additional products. Within the international HRSC Science Team the members of the Photogrommetric/Cartographic Working Group are concerned with systematic preparation of standard products as well as further refinements of the latter in order to achieve highest quality data products. This paper describes some appropriate steps for achieving such refined products and illustrates the current status with the help of various examples.
