But now let satisfy my curiosity. You wrote: " We're often making 3-D views from data". Who are you?

Could I see your 3-D works? Are they about Mars? MOLA + MGS?
I'm the head software guy for the Mars Odyssey/THEMIS, Mars Global Surveyor/TES and MER/Mini-TES experiments. Virtually everything on the THEMIS web site and anytime you've seen images from THEMIS in print (National Geographic, Scientific American, Science, Nature, etc) I either processed or wrote the software to process.

We also have literally hundreds of mosaics and 3-D scenes that have never made it to a public release, like these:

We're about to launch a new web site, and one of the features I want to have for it includes automatically generated 3-D movies. We've been making do with home-grown software, along with Bryce and POV. We tried GRASS once a long time ago, but maybe it's time to revisit it. Thanks.
