Regional Planetary Image Facilities (RPIF)
The Regional Planetary Image Facilities are an international system of
planetary image libraries, established in 1977. They maintain
photographic and digital data as well as mission documentation and
cartographic data. Each facility's general holding contains images and
maps of planets and their satellites taken by solar system exploration
spacecraft.
These planetary image facilities are open to the public. The facilities are primarily reference centers for browsing, studying, and selecting lunar and planetary photographic and cartographic materials.
