Clementine's Gravity Maps

	The 1024x512 texture maps below were generated by scaling up and rotating 180 degrees the 800x400 pixel "simple cylindrical projection" maps provided on the Web by Washington University (St.Louis)'s Earth & Planetary Remote Sensing Laboratory on their PDS GeoSciences Node and their NASA Planetary Data System Geophysics Subnode	See the page http://pds-geophys.wustl.edu/pds/clementine/gravity_topo/images.html Note that the maps there are offset by 180 degrees compared to other maps of the Moon's surface.

Clementine's Albedo Map

		The 1024x512 texture map below was generated by scaling down the 1080x540 pixel (10KM/pixel) "simple cylindrical projection" map provided on the Web at http://wwwflag.wr.usgs.gov/USGSFlag/Space/clementine/clementine.html by the USGS.	.

Global Albedo Map			An alternative 1K Lunar albedo map by Eric Anderson is available on the Web page http://www-scf.usc.edu/~ela/cgi.htm. It shows fewer crater shadows, but has exaggerated darkening of the maria.

Clementine Lunar Cartographic images from USGS/PDS

The 2048X1024 texture below was generated by slightly scaling down a 6 pixel/degree "simple cylindrical projection" map generated on the Web by the USGS "PDS MAP-A-PLANET" site at http://pdsmaps.wr.usgs.gov/maps.html	Note that the images derived from the Clementine dataset have several artifacts, including north-south stripes with variations in brightness. Also, there are some areas with no coverage at all.

4K Lunar map as shown by Celestia	4Kx2K Lunar surface texture map A 4Kx2K map was obtained directly from USGS/PDS. Only its brightness was enhanced by increasing its gamma by a factor of 1.8. This image does not include a grid.
