Hi all,

I'm trying to locate a map with a lunar "sea-level" and colors (or similar) which change based on relative altitudes.

I'm striking out online in my quick 15 minute search. Does anyone know of where I should be looking?

Thanks,

Jimmy

If you haven't found anything yet, this might be of use:

http://www-pat.llnl.gov/clementine/other-data/other.html

http://astrogeology.usgs.gov/Teams/Geomatics/photogrammetry/topography_lunar.html#topic4

Not sure if you can use this but I found an archive which has Clementine gravitational and topographical data.

All right, boys and girls,

I'm showing off now:

Matlab code is attached. You need to download the topogrd1.dat file from the archives on this site: (it's too big to attach)

http://pds-geophys.wustl.edu/pds/clementine/gravity_topo/

and run the attached code with both files in Matlab's current directory.
