• Get heights from surrounding map

This command will let you load topography from a map. "Get heights from surrounding map" is similar to "Get heights from shape model" except you specify a bigmap or maplet. Choosing "y" to the first question will list all of the bigmaps and maplets that physically overlap with the current maplet. Note that the overlap determinations from option "o" at the Main Menu do not affect the maps listed. After listing the maplets, you have the option to let LITHOS autopick the maplet to load; the author has never let LITHOS pick the map and cannot comment on the quality of this choice.

Column 1: The map name list. Column 2: The GSD of the map in km. Column 3: The percentage of the current maplet that is covered by the listed map.

Note: While it will not be listed, you can also load topography from the current maplet. This is sometimes useful when zooming in our out.
