NAME Saturn Small Moon Shape Models V1.0
TYPE Archive
DESCRIPTION Digital shape models have been constructed from Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem(ISS) data for eleven of the small satellites of Saturn and delivered to thePlanetary Data System. These satellites are: Pan, Daphnis, Atlas, Prometheus,Pandora, Epimetheus, Janus, Telesto, Calypso, Helene, and Hyperion. These modelstypically have uncertainties well under 0.5 km. They are appropriate for globalgeometric, geologic, and geophysical studies, and regional slope and topographystudy. They are useful in studying morphologies of only the relatively largest-sizedcraters. Studies based on early versions of these shape models are in Thomas et al.,2013
