These maps show the same thing for Venera 12, but this is a very different site. Most of the context map consists of Tessera terrain - rough uplands cut by dense sets of fractures running in different directions. The closeup view at right shows at least 3 sets of fractures with different azimuths. Tesserae are thought to be areas of older crust which have been around long enough to be disrupted by multiple episodes of faulting. A dangerous place to land!
