-'''Google Mars''' is an online beta application by [http://www.google.com Google] to map the surface of Mars. Where the [http://maps.google.com Google Maps] online system uses a combination of international road maps and Earth orbital photography, Google Mars uses orbital imaging from the [[Mars Global Surveyor]] (the ''Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter'' and ''Mars Orbiter Camera'' instruments) and [[Mars Odyssey]] (the ''Thermal Emission Imaging System'' instrument) spacecraft. Optical and Infrared images are available and the powerful Google search engine is implemented.
