It is of particular interest that the PIMap software system was 
also successfully applied to mapping of Saturnian satellites. At 
DLR global digital mosaics of the medium-sized icy satellites 
of the Saturnian system have been generated in the framework 
of the Cassini mission. The 15 quadrangles of an atlas of 
Enceladus and Dione were extracted from global mosaics, 
reprojected, and coordinate grids were superposed as 
graphicvectors using the PIMAP software. 
4. CONCLUSIONS 
From the experience gained during four years HRSC 
cartography and operational application of the PIMap software, 
it is evident that a breakthrough for future planetary mapping 
has been achieved. The cartographic software package PIMap 
accomplishes all cartographic processing steps that are required 
for topographic image maps. Furthermore, thematic mapping is 
substantially supported by the system. Thus, ongoing and future 
planetary missions that involve cartographic projects will 
greatly benefit from this development.
