   landers and orbiters on Mars in 1976 saw the release of a global atlas (Batson et al., 1979), 1 a new global geologic map (Scott and Tanaka, 1986; Greeley and Guest, 1987; Tanaka and Scott, 1987), and even a digital image of the entire surface (the Mars Digital Image Model, or MDIM). Kieffer et al. (1992b) summarized the major conclusions of ...

   Which layered units are undivided in a geologic map of Mars?

   • Contrary to previous global geologic maps of Mars, we employ the descriptor term “undivided” to describe several layered units (Apu, Hpu, AHtu, Htu, HNhu, and Nhu) that we feel have the potential for stratigraphic sub-division during the construction of larger-scale (i.e., more zoomed in) geologic maps.

   Was Mars geologically active until today?

   • The map also confirms previous work that suggests Mars had been geologically active until the present day. There is evidence that major changes in Mars’ global climate supported the temporary presence of surface water and near-surface groundwater and ice.
