Mars Global Surveyor
Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC)
MOC Images Reproduced in Color
- MOC Wide Angle images (low resolution, regional and global views)
can be made into color pictures using
the Wide Angle Red and Wide Angle Blue images. The green
channel is synthesized using the red and blue information.
- MOC Narrow Angle (high resolution) images can only be made into
"colorized" versions by superimposing color from previous
spacecraft images (e.g., Viking), or by assigning a palette of
colors to the graylevel DN's in the MOC image.
