This csv file is from
here This data says in it "The following list has been transcribed and transposed from the list of
Lunar Orbiter photos appearing in the book by Bowker and Hughes as it appears at:
http://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/lunar_or...ok/table2.shtml "
I know that I do not know very much about this kind of thing, so please be gentle with me and allow me some lee-way. :-)
It seems to me that these corners are all over the place.
Could you briefly see if you can make head or tail of these please and set me on the right course?
To illustrate this, I have extracted the first 12 lines (from 178) the med-res corner part of the line and placed the frame number at the start.
The fields go

I have worked out looking at these corner coordinates that there appears to be no pattern to any of these.
BL=bottom left, TL=top left, BR=bottom right, TR=top right

As you can see they are all mixed up - if I have interpreted the data correctly.
I am assuming that east longitude is positive and west longitude is negative,
so that a more negative longitude is further 'left' or west.
Have I totally got the wrong end of the stick? :-)
