Hello,
this is the first time I post on this forum. I would like to take the opportunity to thank you all for the
inspiration you provided with your beautiful images and excellent work.
After perusing the forums for a while I decided to start producing some planetary maps for some research project I was involved with and because it is really cool!
I used the LOLA grided release and ISIS3 to read the LOLA files and produce .cub files.
I used GRASS GIS to read these files (reads directly cub files).
I then made an overlay from the illumination map that LROC team made for the Lunar South Pole.
LROC SP Illumination Map .
Finally, I used the nviz function of GRASS to tranform the LOLA data in 3D and overlay the illumination map as a "red to blue" colormap.
So in these pictures, red means more illumination and blue means less illumination.
The scale can be seen on the first map. I attach two of the images.
hope you like it
best regards
Emmanouil
