Summary
The Plato quadrangle in the north-central part of the Moon lies within a series of concentric depressed and raised rings surrounding the Imbrium basin, the center of which lies about 335 km southwest of Montes Teneriffe. The innermost raised ring is marked by isolated ridges and peaks within Mare Imbrium itself, including in the Plato quadrangle Montes Recti and Teneriffe. The band of terra including Montes Aples forms part of the second and most prominent raised ring, immediately encircling Mare Imbrium. Mare Frigoris is part of the succeeding depressed ring and the terra in the north of the quadrangle part of the third raised ring. It is believed that the Imbrium basin and other multi-ringed basins on the Moon were formed by the [...]

The innermost raised ring is marked by isolated ridges and peaks within Mare Imbrium itself, including in the Plato quadrangle Montes Recti and Teneriffe. The band of terra including Montes Aples forms part of the second and most prominent raised ring, immediately encircling Mare Imbrium. Mare Frigoris is part of the succeeding depressed ring and the terra in the north of the quadrangle part of the third raised ring. It is believed that the Imbrium basin and other multi-ringed basins on the Moon were formed by the impacts of large bodies.
Digitized 1:1,000,000-scale geologic map of the LAC-12 Plato region of the Moon. Originally mapped on Lunar Base Chart USAF-ACIC imagery. The scanned map sheet was imported into ArcMap and georeferenced to the more current 2013 global WAC mosaic basemap. Contacts and geologic units were digitized and attributed based on type and unit name.
