SOURCES OF AREOGRAPHIC COORDINATES, 1909-1954

Abstract

All published areographic coordinates measured since 1909 were compared and cross-identified after a thorough search for usable data was made in the existing Mars literature. The collected data for 586 points of Mars' surface were found to contain various errors of measurement and identification, which were corrected in the individual notes, and which were taken into account in compiling a basic master map and list of points.
