Geometrical parameters of the VIRTIS-H LOS (LOS) from MTP010 to MTP012. A) Minimum distance of the LOS to the nucleus surface (in meters with the color scale given to the right); B) solar incidence angle (in degrees, with the color scale given to the right) of the closest point to the LOS. Each cross corresponds to a single 6 s acquisition. Only one in every four acquisitions is considered. The gray background represents the effective latitude based on the SHAP5 model composed of 300 000 facets to show the location of topographic features.
