Surface emissivity of Mars from MGS Thermal Emission Spectrometer, sampled to Mars Odyssey THEMIS bands 3-9

<p>These maps are described in Pankine et al. (submitted to Planetary and Space Science). Surface emissivity was derived from MGS TES data, and then binned at a spatial resolution of 8 pixels-per-degree. The binned surface emissivity was then convolved to THEMIS spectral bandpasses between bands 3-9 (~7.9 to 12.5 microns).</p> <p>Each map covers the range -180 to 180 degrees&nbsp;longitude, and -70 to 70 degrees latitude. Null data values are set to zero.&nbsp;</p> <p>A longitudinal offset of 0.271 degrees was applied so that the maps align with data sets that use the IAU 2000 prime meridian.</p> <p>These products may be uploaded as custom maps into the JMARS GIS software.</p>
