    AB: Abstract
    This camera, coded as IMP, has been designed for the stereophotography of the surface of Mars. It includes two optical pathes, each provided with a 12-position filter wheel, and it is planned to take about 120 images to give a complete downward hemispherical coverage from a given location above the Martial surface. The choice of filters is designed to enable surface minerals to be identified, and also to provide information on their degree of weathering. N95-16206/1/GAR.
