Open source software costs nothing, but enables people to do great things with it. This is the #opensource software/data I've been using to create maps, process images, make animations etc. related to #NASA's #Mars2020 mission:

#GIMP : https://www.gimp.org
#Geogebra : https://www.geogebra.org
#ImageMagick : https://imagemagick.org
#QGIS : https : https://www.qgis.org
#Stellarium : https://stellarium.org

I'm a newcomer to #ESA's Planetary Science Archive. Here is how I decode images in the PSA archive with GIMP:

• Linux: You will need to compile a plugin, written by Holger Isenberg, https://twitter.com/areoinfo
• Source code/Windows executable for the plugin: http://areo.info/gimp/gimp-2.8/
• Linux: also needed is the file gimpcompat.h e.g. from here: https://github.com/mskala/noxcf-gimp/blob/master/libgimp/gimpcompat.h
• Better read the README file first 🙂

Then you will be able to process images like this:
