Summary

This geologic map of Mars was compiled largely from Mariner-9-based 1:5,000,000-scale geologic maps prepared by several authors. However, many of the geologic units of the larger scale maps have been combined and revised to provide continuity of portrayal so that this map expresses our own concepts as well as those of the mappers at the larger scale.
