Application of photometric analyses for interpretation of Mars-Mariner VI and VII imagery
Abstract
The application of radiometric analysis in the interpretation of Mariner 6 and 7 imagery is investigated and illustrated. The following types of problems were felt could be addressed using this imagery: (1) evaluation of local reflectivity changes; (2) augmentation of geological mapping; (3) discrimination of atmospheric phenomena; and (4) investigation of polar cap structure.
