The quadrangles were initially named for albedo features, as these were the most prominent features visible before mapping was carried out by spacecraft. The mapping carried out with the images obtained by the Mariner 10 flybys in 1974 and 1975 led to nine of the quadrangles being renamed for newly mapped prominent features. [ 1 ]
The maps below were produced by the Mars Global Surveyor ' s Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter; redder colors indicate higher elevations.The maps of the equatorial quadrangles use a Mercator projection, while those of the mid-latitude quadrangles use a Lambert conformal conic projection, and the maps of the polar quadrangles use a polar stereographic projection.
The Moon has been divided into 30 quadrangles by the United States Geological Survey at the 1:2,500,000 map scale. [1] At the 1:1,000,000 scale it's divided into 144 quadrangles. [2] The quadrangles are numbered in bands from north to south. Each band is then divided into a latitude-dependent number of quadrangles.
