The resolution of the pictures from the Mariner 9 mission determines the distribution of the control points, as well as the gaps in the planet-wide control net. After discussing the photogrammetric equations and the computational method used to establish the planet-wide control net and the secondary net, the camera stations and the assumed physical properties of Mars are considered. Subsequent paragraphs contain a description of the control points, their measurements, and a discussion of how distortions are removed. Finally, results of the computations are given, with tables of coordinates for the control points.
