 KRC is maintained and provided by Arizona State University, and by good fortune, so is JMars. This is a program written in Java which is kind of like Google Earth, but for places like Mars, the Moon etc. This has a feature whereby you can click on the map and it'll create a KRC data point for that location, using the underlying maps to determine slope, elevation, albedo etc. After creating all the data points you want, you can then get it to send the data to KRC and produce nice graphs from the results that come back. The graphs show surface temperature throughout a single day and for the whole (orbital) year. KRC is maintained and provided by Arizona State University, and by good fortune, so is JMars.
