re: I'm not very visually acute ..

Well - one of thems in colour ;)

To generate them - I took this

http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/press/opportunity/20050506b/1NN448EFF55VRTDIP1992L000M5-B456R1_br2.jpg


which is 20m on a side...

Coloured it to be mars-like, and popped one of the rover-deck self portaits in the middle - to make a simulated colour pic.

Then I simply resized to the appropriate proportions - and then resized back up again using nearest-neigbour to show the actual pixels

THe difference as I see it is that you could actually plot a course using the HiRISE imagery - between the dunes and so forth.

With MOC - you can only really identify interesting large targets - and not plot a safe route between them.
