This goal is being achieved with image sequences obtained during close flybys supplemented by images from greater distances to complete the coverage. Close flybys of all medium-sized satellites except Mimas are planned during the nominal mission of the Cassini spacecraft[...] The cartographic maps were created from images taken by Cassini with a very small number of images from Voyager-1 and Voyager-2 used to fill in any gaps. Only images taken with CL1, CL2, and GRN filters were used[...] Imaging of the medium-sized icy satellites is ongoing and will continue until the end of the Cassini mission, making it possible to improve the image mosaics during the tour.” For more information about ISS cartographic maps, consult the aareadme.txt and other supporting documentation on the cartographic map archive volumes. 3.10 Accessing ISS Data Online Most users will want to access ISS data electronically over the internet.
