Abstract
On board of the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), the Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) developed under the lead of University of Bern, has the mission to provide stereo images of the planet’s surface in colour at a resolution of better than 5 m (4.54m from a circular orbit of 400 km) for enhancing our knowledge of the surface of Mars [1].
