Abstract

The entire fourteen-year database of Goldstone Solar System Radar Mars near-nadir radar scattering model fits is being revised using the latest topography from the Mars Global Surveyor Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter instrument. The improved radar dataset will better serve the Mars exploration community for landing site selection and characterization.
