HiWish Questions
No doubt you have been introduced to HiWish. We’ve gotten a lot of questions about it, including the following. We’ll add these answers to our FAQ.
My registration failed? What can I do?
We’ve streamlined the registration process, so please try again (with a new username). We do not know the reason why so many people have had trouble registering, but will continue to work on the problem.
Why can’t I save my suggestion? The button is grayed-out!
Please make sure you have provided four things: a title, a science rationale, a region of interest on the map (thick white rectangle with blue marker), and a science theme.
I filled out the suggestion, but can’t get to the next step. What’s wrong?
There should be an error message next to the field that needs to be changed. Typically, this is an invalid character in the title, or something of that nature.

Where can I get the raw elevation data (preferably in spreadsheet format: csv, xls)? I want to plot some of my own DTMs…

These data are in the DTE*.IMG files, which are binary with a plain-text header. See this document for more info: http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/pdf/HiRISE_RDR_v12_DTM_11_25_2009.pdf
