gmap - qgis training material: Beagle Rupes (Mercury)
Description
This dataset part of the Geology and Planetary Mapping Winter School 2022 featuring Beagle Rupes as a study area.
Beagle Rupes is lobate scarp at Mercurys surface with a length of more than 600km cross-cutting an oval shaped crater.
We compiled a beginners – intermediate level training package for the area. The package includes several basemaps such as Map Projected Basemap Reduced Data Record (BDR) (Hash 2013a), High-incidence East-illumination Basemap (HIE), Map-projected High-incidence West-illumination (HIW) (Hash 2015a), Map Projected Low-Incidence Angle Basemap Reduced Data Record (LOI) (Hash 2013b), Map Projected Multispectral Reduced Data Record (MDR) Hash 2015b) and digital terrain model (DTM) (Becker et al., 2016). The data is cut to the area of interest and a training project is set up for QGIS.
The training package is designed as a group exercise with four adjacent tiles covering the Beagle Rupes area.
