Archive: DEM of Moon with resolution 1/256°

DEM of Moon with resolution 1/256°

The datum of Digital Elevation Model of Moon, included in the archive, derived from raster data of Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) experiment, version 2.0, which was part of Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission, and distributed by Planetary Data System (PDS) of NASA. Base resolution of the datum is 1/256°.

The datum presented here generally in form of .ZRS-files (stands Zipped Raster Set), which is proprietary compressed format of author of the datum. Separated files of the datum are in hierarchical and multi-resolution relation for optimization of speed and appearance upon using in Spatial Aspect Viewer and Spatial Aspect Explorer.

Also the datum contents set of spatial regions covering quadrangles from Lunar Astronomical Chart and from coarse scale Lunar Quadrangles.

Installation prerequisites:

Spatial Aspect Map Locator for installation process and easy launching.
Spatial Aspect Viewer or Spatial Aspect Explorer for using.
