The Lunar Mapping and Modeling Portal: Tools for Mission Planning, Science, and Outreach
Abstract
NASA's Lunar Mapping and Modeling Project (LMMP) has developed a suite of interactive tools that incorporate observations from past and current lunar missions, creating a comprehensive lunar research Web portal. The online Web portal allows anyone with access to a computer to search through and view a vast number of lunar images and other digital products. The portal provides easy-to-use tools for browsing, data layering and feature search, including detailed information on the source of each assembled data product and links to NASA's Planetary Data System. New features and capabilities are enhancing LMMP's value for mission planning, scientific research, and education/outreach. This presentation will provide an overview of LMMP uses and capabilities, highlight new features, and preview coming enhancements.
