One important feature enhancement is that the auto-stretch preference is now “sticky.” You can disable auto-stretch once and for all, as indicated in the screenshots below.

With this change, you can load our images and see them in the original stretch, while still having the ability to re-stretch within higher-resolution areas.

Click the link below to view a gallery of 50 HiRISE images in the 1300 range, drawn from our online PDS data node. The RGB browse is shown in the window, linked to the full JPEG 2000 using the IAS viewer. The RGB browse scale image is usually scaled down by a factor of 8–in both horizontal and vertical directions–from the JP2 product. So the browse image shows you around 1/64th of the color data: there are vast and beautiful scenes that can only be seen in full by zooming in with IAS. Nevertheless, if you have some time, this is a good way to explore a set of images and get an overall idea of what there is to see.
