Wanna check out the weather on Mars? There’s a map for that:
View larger size in new window To change to other Mars basemaps, click the button that displays the name of the current basemap. The "About this map" link (upper left corner) will display some metadata about each Mars basemap. What? You’re more of a moony sorta person? Got you covered: http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.php?ll=-20.967152,638.570923&z=5&t=KaguyaTC_Ortho&q=http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/planetary/moon.txt Still not happy? Check out the other non-earth datasets hosted by USGS. You should be able to make a Gmap4 link to display any that are labeled “cylindrical”. Here is the data list: http://astrowebmaps.wr.usgs.gov/webmapatlas/Layers/maps.html And here is a Jupiter map as an example for how to specify one of these WMS data layers right in the link: http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.php?ll=-12.292311,-265.873046&z=4&t=SSI_VGR_color&wms=http://planetarymaps.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/maps/jupiter/io_simp_cyl.map&name=SSI_VGR_color&layers=SSI_VGR_color&transparent=false If you try your hand at rolling your own, you might need to peek at this WMS documentation: http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4_gis-viewer.html
