Visualizations
Mars Trek provides an exciting way for students, citizen scientists, and the public to explore some of Mars' most spectacular landforms as well as NASA areas of operation on Mars' surface. Data gathered from multiple instruments aboard multiple NASA Mars missions provide diverse views for Mars Trek's user-friendly set of tools including interactive maps, 3-D printer-exportable topography, and standard keyboard gaming controls for flying high or low above Mars' surface.
Vesta trek is a free, web-based application that provides detailed visualizations of the asteroid Vesta, one of the largest asteroids in our solar system. Data gathered from multiple instruments aboard NASA's Dawn spacecraft have been compiled into Vesta Trek's user-friendly set of tools including interactive maps, 3-D printer-exportable topography, and standard keyboard gaming controls for flying high or low above Vesta's surface.
NASA's Lunar Mapping and Modeling Portal (LMMP) is a sophisticated suite of web-based data visualization tools designed for mission planning, lunar science, and public outreach. Data from a wide range of instruments across a wide range of lunar missions are integrated into interactive stackable layers and analysis tools. LMMP supports downloading of data from the Planetary Data System, and supports collaborative work, allowing open sharing as well as posting of data to private groups.
