How can I know where mastcam is pointed in each rover position for each image?

How can I know where mastcam is pointed in each rover position for each image?

They do not publicly release the pointing metadata, so generally you have to find features from the image in a larger context image, such as a navcam/hazcam shot or even a HiRise overhead. Shadow orientations and time of day can give a clue of general direction sometimes.

Edit: fix incomplete post.

Is it available an updated map for 10th anniversary?

[Hungry4info3]

It turns out that Curiosity has actually been on the ground for less than two years. So a ten-year anniversary map seems somewhat premature.

The tenth-year anniversary reference is to Opportunity, not to Curiosity.

Mmmh... I wrote in wrong thread sorry :-) (looking for opportunity traverse map!)
