Construction of a High-Quality Digital Elevation Model of the Amundsen Crater and Landing Area Selection for Future Lunar Missions

Construction of a High-Quality Digital Elevation Model of the Amundsen Crater and Landing Area Selection for Future Lunar Missions

The Amundsen crater is located in the Aitken Basin of the lunar nearside. Its unique location and the possibility of water ice make it a prime landing area for lunar exploration missions. Constructing a high-quality digital elevation model (DEM) and performing a detailed landing site analysis are cr...
