There is prior HiRISE coverage of this area in Aeolis Dorsa, but none of it has focused on the adjacent inverted fans. It will be interesting to view them in detail in order to analyze their layering and relationships with other Aeolis Dorsa layered deposits.
Aeolis Dorsa is right at the boundary that separates the elevated, cratered, southern highlands from the smooth northern lowlands that has long drawn similarities to ocean basins on Earth.
