GMAP (Geologic MApping of Planetary bodies) is a part of the Europlanet 2024 Research Infrastructure, together with other VA (Virtual Access) activities.
The activity integrates partners and outputs from two projects previously funded by the EU through Horizon 2020 (UPWARDS and PLANMAP) to deliver tools and services for geological mapping of any Solar System body.
The GMAP project aims to foster the production of planetary cartography (as geological maps or other kinds of planetary cartography) by actively supporting the creation and preservation of planetary maps. The GMAP community, supported by the Europlanet Society, will provide standards, documentation and tools for the growing community of planetary mappers.
