NASA is publishing data on other planets (Mars) in this case through WMS map services. I used the NASA service as a base map with the detailed elevation on top of it. More detail can be seen on the full map using the detailed narrow angle camera mosaic data. These data can be used exactly the same way as traditional GIS data with annotations and overlays. The map isn't cached which means every image is created on the fly. The feature below is the Elysium Mons, one of the highest mountains on Mars.
