This colour-coded topographic image shows Trouvelot Crater and its surroundings on Mars.
It was created from data collected by ESA’s Mars Express on 12 October 2024 (orbit 26233) and is based on a digital terrain model of the region, from which the topography of the landscape can be derived. Lower parts of the surface are shown in blues and purples, while higher altitude regions show up in whites and reds, as indicated on the scale to the top right.
North is to the right. The ground resolution of the original image is approximately 18 m/pixel and the image is centred at about 15°N/255°E.
[Image description: A top‑down view of a colourful Martian terrain map. The surface is shaded in bright colours that represent elevation: high areas appear in pinks and reds, while lower regions fade into greens, then deep blues. Several circular impact craters are visible throughout, with their rims highlighted by the changing colours. The overall effect is a vibrant, textured landscape showing the height differences across the area.]
