Graphic Maps

The Graphic Map Layer allows users to displays various global maps of Mars in the Viewing Window. These maps usually serve as the basis of the Viewing Window, with other layers (such as the ROI Layer, Groundtrack Layer, etc) displaying on top of them.

Open the Graphic Map Layer

  1. Open the Graphic Map Layer: Chose "Add New Layer" -> "Graphic Map" -> Choose a Map Type -> Choose a Map
  2. Using the Graphic Map Focus Panel: The Graphic and Numeric Map Layers are now simplified versions of the Advanced Map Layer with interfaces that long-time users will recognize. The focus panel in the Graphic Map Layer is identical to the focus panel in the Numeric Map Layer, but since the Graphic Maps have so data behind them no graphs will appear if users draw a profile line. Clicking on the "Configure" button will open up the settings window associated with the Advanced Map Layer and give users full control over all map settings. For more information, visit the Advanced Map Layer page.
