Mars topography (MOLA dataset) HiRes (1).jpg

The surface of Mars has been divided into thirty cartographic quadrangles by the United States Geological Survey. The maps below were produced by the Mars Global Surveyor's Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter; redder colors indicate higher elevations. The maps of the equatorial quadrangles use a Mercator projection, while those of the mid-latitude quadrangles use a Lambert conformal conic projection, and the maps of the polar quadrangles use a polar stereographic projection.

See the Mars Atlas for a general view of Mars.
