IN an attempt to weed through all the irrelevant crap on google and being on a 56k I have given up the search for a decent hightmap of current planetary data and come here in hopes someone could direct me to the relevant sites...I am looking for 1k - 2k heightmaps of entire planets and also selected features...namely Valles Marineris and Olympus Mons on Mars just to name a few...

Links will be greatly appreciated and will be followed by an end result...pictures of my work....Possibly a final release here soon...whenever Mr. Ball comes back from vacation that is

You could do a lot worse than play with this link, Mars mola in jpg, customizable.
