Additional Details
- Description
- These four maps are in a series of maps of Venus at nominal scales of 1:50,000,000 and 1:10,000,000. They are based on data from the Magellan Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) instrument. Because side-looking radar uses long-wave radiation and imaging geometry distinct from that of framing cameras, radar images differ from conventional photographs. These differences should be kept in mind when interpreting radar images. Brightness in radar images is dependent on three factors: topography, surface texture, and surface electrical properties.
