Mapper photos?

[hubbazoot]

Does anyone have a collection of maps from all the objects in the Kerbal Solar System? If you flag them with spoilers, it'd be cool to get anomaly points of interest marked as well. I'm planning a rover trip to each planet for extended exploration and wanted some specific sites to check out.

If you download the ISA MapSat mod, you can send out mapping probes to discover those things for yourself. Be sure to include the MapSat dish on your landers and rovers, too, even after the planet is fully mapped, so you can examine the map during their missions.

How high of resolution are the maps?

I have already mapped ALL the things, so you don't have to.

A map of the moon with Points of Interest marked would be really useful. Does such a map exist anywhere?

I've got the standard size ISA maps for Duna and Ike, mostly complete. I had to beat Sleeping Dogs before I continued my mapping flights. Mun and Minmus next, then Eve, etc.

How high of resolution are the maps?

Not real high, but they show markings for anomalies and other points of interest, and you can get LAT/LONs for plugging into MechJeb or other stuff. They've also been good enough to let me drive rovers to find a few odd things they detected.

[air805ronin]

They can be higher by modifying the execution of ISA Maptsat. I'm lazy and just want to use the mod in game...so default resolution works great.

[hubbazoot]

Hmm, I may have to start re-visiting all the celestial bodies again in a "proper" fashion. Time to get me the mapper plugin.

[hubbazoot]

So, I just started mapping Kerbin and I noticed I'm only seeing

A couple of the anomalies near KSC. Have the others been removed?

Can anyone else confirm?

Edit: I got them all now. You have to fly basically RIGHT over them.

I've only just started using the ISA Map Sat and found that once you get the in game map at default resolution done, there are still large gaps if you render the map separately with the external processor, at a high pixel width like 3200. My "complete" map of Kerbin became a patchwork of stripes and spotty areas and gaps at the poles. Mostly because I mapped at 50x warp probably. Need to just let it run at 1x and see how it goes. Hope my 71km orbit is a decent one.

[hubbazoot]

Mapping separately with an external processor? That sounds like work. Really cool work, but work.

ISA MapSat and MechJeb are in my "mandatory" mods collection; even my "vanilla" copy of KSP has them installed, because they're just so damned useful--ISA's useful, if nothing else, for looking like a high-gain antenna and/or a landing radar, once you're done mapping...
