MRO HiRISE EDR: Raw Mars Satellite Images

Experimental Data Records from the HiRISE instrument aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. These images are the permanent record of raw, unprocessed data, maintaining original spacecraft orientation and optical distortion. The data is provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and was last updated on March 13, -2026.

Use Cases

• Perform geometric correction and orthorectification based on raw, unrectified image properties.
• Analyze optical distortion characteristics based on the original spacecraft viewing orientation.
• Develop image processing pipelines for planetary science based on unprocessed experimental data records.

Strengths

• Data is the permanent record of raw images from the HiRISE instrument, a high-resolution camera.
• Images maintain original spacecraft viewing orientation and optical distortion properties, preserving raw state.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
