I used the original 11a097.bb3 image from the NASA Viking image archive, converted it to .png and manually removed the noise. Except for the conversion, this was done in Adobe Photoshop CS2. The original file by NASA is in the public domain, and so is this new one.
Other versions I created this image as a replacement for the now deleted image Viking 1 Dunes.png. Parts of this image were missing. Using the original picture from the Lander archive resulted in a larger image of the same composition.
