The colour-coded topographic view shows relative heights and depths of terrain in the Libya Montes region on Mars. As indicated in the key at top right, whites and reds represent the highest terrain, while blue/purple is the lowest.
The color-coded topographic view is based on a digital terrain model of the region, from which the topography of the landscape can be derived.
This region was imaged on 21 February 2017 during Mars Express orbit 16647. The ground resolution is about 15 m/pixel and the images are centred on 90°E / 1°N.
