Laser range-finding instruments such as the Mars Orbital Laser
Altimeter (MOLA) \citep{1992JGR....97.7781Z,2001JGR...10623689S}

has significantly advanced the study of the Martian surface by
providing geologists with a highly accurate elevation map of the
entire planet. The upcoming Lunar Orbital Laser Altimeter (LOLA)
\citep{2008AGUFM.P31B1419N,2007SSRv..129..391C} will achieve similar
results for the Moon. However, MOLA topographic products are limited
in resolution (463~m/pixel at the equator). This, coupled with
localized interpolation artifacts in some regions due to sparse
laser data, have rendered MOLA products insufficient for detailed
studies of specific sites; e.g. geologic stratification and deposition
studies of specific sites; e.g. geologic stratification and deposition
analysis, or in the case of mission planning, landing site selection.

The most common technique for obtaining higher-resolution digital
terrain models (DTMs) is to employ stereogrammetric techniques.
However, existing processing techniques on photogrammetric
workstations are extremely human intensive and expensive. The
substantial number of man-hours and resources required for this
aproach has meant that relatively few of the existing stereo image
approach has meant that relatively few of the existing stereo image
pairs have been processed, hence very few of these data products have
reached the scientific community.

The Stereo Pipeline provides an advanced stereo image processing
capability for ISIS. It supports the ISIS ``cube'' file fromat, and
capability for ISIS. It supports the ISIS ``cube'' file format, and
can make use of the ISIS camera models and ancillary information
(i.e. SPICE kernels) for imagers on many NASA spacecraft. This tight
integration with ISIS allows scientists to prepare data and perform
stereo porcessing using the familiar ISIS toolchain. Another benefit

is that new sensor models are available in the ASP as soon as they are
developed for ISIS. In principal, by leveraging the wealth of
different camera models in ISIS, stereo processing can even be carried
