Description: Smoothed and contour-filled optical albedo map of Viikinkoski et al. (2018) and Ferrais et al. (2020) with purported topographical and albedo features labeled. Approximate outlines of depressions Eros, Foxtrot, and Panthia are indicated with dashed lines. Indeterminate features are indicated with a label and question mark. The subradar centers of each calibrated radar echo are shown. Optical albedo is shown as multiplicative deviations from the mean (pv = 0.16 with a range of 0.13–0.19). Three additional optical bright spots noted by Ferrais et al. are indicated with stylized white symbols.
