OPM Basemaps

Several new Mars basemaps were been created for the "Where On Mars?" project.

They are available to anyone for use in CartoDB Builder, or your mapping applications using Leaflet or OpenLayers. See How to Create Your Own Map using CARTO.

You can explore the basemaps with this Leaflet example (use the layer selector top right).

Global Mars Basemaps

These basemaps are suited for use in CartoDB Builder.
They are all in Web Mercator projection and covering the entire surface of Mars.
