https://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/mgn/urn-nasa-pds-magellan_stereo_topography/data/There's this 32K DEM of Venus that I would like to use but its in PDS4 format meaning img2png does not work on it.
Any help would be appreciated to get this converted to png format so I can make a giant 64K Venus bumpmap!!!
The file is mosaic_allstereo.img with the .hdr going with it.

ISIS4 will import it , but as i recall it is only a very partial DEM , only a small part of the planet is there

Unfortunately, I only have a Windows computer which is incompatible with ISIS without a considerable number of extra steps. If possible, could you convert this to a PNG and store it on your drive? You will be credited in my addon for your help.

Yes I would like that map please! It would provide extra detail in areas of Venus as a PNG.

Thank you! This will also be great to use when I make my 20K terraformed map of it in beautiful crisp 16 bit detail as opposed to the pixelated 8 bit detail! (It's the biggest size GIMP will allow the paintbrush to be and anything bigger slows down the computer too much to allow me to make a terraformed map.)

While browsing through articles, I found an 11K cub DEM of Io
https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/do ... 02/2013JE004591&file=IoDEM.cubIt is not of the whole thing but with smoothing of unmapped areas, I could make it act as a decent shaded map for most of it.
16.97 is highest -3.1 is the lowest.

I would like a 16 bit version of that please. The mountains of Io will really stand out with my addon!

Thank you! This will be useful in adding elevation detail to much of Io.
