Here you go… It’s a link to his Google Drive. In the folder you’ll find a PDF that requires a minor update as it still points to UMSF (now defunked) but Fernando is waiting for UMSF to be resurrected that process is in work, and once done he’ll update the PDF user manual. The KMZ file in the folder is the one you open to update the map on Google Earth. The current version reflects the rover’s current location. The folder also contains the high resolution map tiles to install inside Google Earth.
You are a gentleman and a scholar, Paul, thank you. Much credit to Fernando Nogal, as well. My PC is having a mid-life crisis, so I haven’t been able to look at that orbital map file yet, but this is all inspiring to see. I am very much looking forward to UMSF being reconstituted.
Would you mind if I sent you a DM? I wanted to ask your opinion about writing “guides” of a somewhat similar kind.
I am definitely interested, Paul! I love me a drowning in data! Hit me!
Sorted - I’ll gather the download links etc and send them in the next day or so :)
If you don’t already have it installed, get yourself the pro version of Google Earth installed (it’s free)

I had no idea you could send DM’s here :) But sure go head, I’ll help in anyway you can.
