Hi, all,

Does anyone know how I can take advantage of the fabulous Martian
terrain data in the newest version of Google Earth and also in Google
Mars (which is similar to Google Maps for Earth) to create elevation
profiles of Martian features? None of the nice tools that I know about
for doing this with terrestrial topography (e.g.,
http://freegeographytools.com/2007/elevation-profile-in-google-maps,
or http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/ ) seem capable of using a different
baseline elevation data set.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
