Along-Track and Cross-Track Noise Analysis of Minimal Curvature on Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter Data

Abstract

The planetary surfaces are explored by ground samples or by indirect observations such as images and topographic data. This article examines the topography data from the Mars orbiter laser altimeter (MOLA). The analysis is based on the noise variance of the minimal curvature. A histogram approach to assessing longitudinal and transverse lines laying on geographical features (such as craters) in altimeter data is suggested
