Your Blue Mars effort inspired me.  I had been wanting to create a spherical
height field for analyses that I was doing on Mars' surface features.  I
created an isosurface based on a Mars topo map as pigment.  The attached
image is the result so far (without the ocean sphere).  I can't seem to get
a complete map of the surface in spherical form.  Weird.  Is your map
complete?
