Abstract

In this paper we introduce the Mars planet-wide 3D surface modelling work performed within the EU FP-7 iMars project which completed last year. In this report, we describe a fully automated multi-resolution DTM processing chain developed by the Imaging Group at UCL-MSSL, called CASP-GO based upon the heritage NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline (ASP) and the Gotcha image matcher. The CASP-GO system has been integrated into the Microsoft Azure cloud computing environment and successfully processed ~5,300 unique CTX DTMs covering ~19% of the Martian surface at 18m resolution.
