Muffa dataset

We present a dataset of utilities developed to address the study of transient phenomena on the Martian surface through a seasonal approach. To this aim we selected high resolution HiRISE/MRO images. For each of these images (catalogue updated as of December 2024), we have compiled data records that are partly extracted from the archive itself but are supplemented with many other, associated or computed, new parameters. Further processing of this primary dataset has yielded two lists of image clusters related to a selection of Martian sites. Based on the spatio-temporal distribution of HiRISE images, these sites are ideal for studying: (i) seasonal surface variations through a 'virtual sampling' of the Martian year, and (ii) transient or seasonal changes through non-conventional stereoscopic pairing.
