Example for Elevation Profiles

Here are some questions I had and the profiles I drew in Jezero Crater where Perseverance landed.  

​

​

1. I wondered:  Are all the circles inside Jezero Crater craters or are some of them peaks?  if so, are the craters about the same depth? What do you think?

​

2. I also wondered about the delta Perseverance crosses. I noticed that the surface just to the right of the delta had a different slope than the delta. What do you think caused more sediment to the north in the delta?

​

See if you can answer these or your own questions. Here are the profiles I drew about Jezero Crater: The profiles were 'docked' in the layers column.  To dock your profiles click the icon in the "View and Configure Chart" popup window in the upper right corner that looks like this:
