Planetary mapping tools applied to floor fractured craters on Mars Planetary research is often user based and requires considerable skill time and effort. Unfortunately self defined boundary conditions definitions and rules are often not documented or not easy to comprehend due to the complexity of research. This makes a comparison to other studies or an extension of the already existing research complicated. Comparisons are often distorted because results rely on different not well defined or even unknown boundary conditions. The purpose of this research is to develop a standardized analysis method for planetary surfaces which is adaptable to several research topics. The method provides a consistent quality of results. This also includes achieving reliable and comparable results and reducing the time and effort of conducting such studies. A standardized analysis method is provided by automated analysis tools that focus on statistical parameters. Specific key parameters and boundary conditions are defined for the tool application. The analysis relies on a database in which all key paramete…
