Saturnian system. These data provide information otherwise 
unattainable regarding the properties of the icy outer layers (esp. 
Europa and Io), discrimination between competing hypotheses 
of geologic origins (on Triton, Ganymede, Europa, and 
Enceladus for example), and in some cases the thermal histories 
of these bodies (esp. Ganymede and Dione). The morphology 
and topography of impact craters, volcanoes, faults, and other 
geologic features and province serve as probes into the interiors 
of these bodies. These data are available on request for use in 
mapping and modelling of geologic and geophysical processes.
