Terragen

Photorealistic image renderings created with Terragen, a 3D landscape rendering software.

  • Victoria Crater

    Victoria Crater

    Victoria Crater on Meridiani Plain, Mars. This crater was visited by the rover Opportunity. The crater has a diameter of approximately 730 m and is about 70 m deep. This Terragen image was rendered using the Digital Elevation Model of the crater. In order to obtain a realistic colorization of the scenery, I used surface maps and cloud layers particularly generated for this kind of Mars renderings.
