The complete image is centered at 7,4° North Latitude and 157,3 East longitude. The range to the target site was 274,6 Km (171,6 miles).
At this distance the image scale ranges from 54,9 cm/pixel (with 2 x 2 binning) to 109,9 cm/pixel (with 4 x 4 binning).
The image has been map-projected to 50 cm/pixel and north is to the right.
The image was taken at a Local Mars Time of 3:26 PM and the scene is illuminated from the West with a solar incidence angle of 52°, thus the Sun was about 38° above the horizon.
At a Solar Longitude of 115,1°, the season on Mars is Northern Summer.
