Noctis Labyrinthus is made up by inter-connected canyons with complex branched networks of extensional faults and grabens whose origin and evolution is still debated. It is located in the Northern hemisphere at the western part of Valles Marineris, and is bordered by Noctis Fossae to NE and by Syria Planum and Syria Colles to the SSE (defined on the surface by the coordinates 6.36° S, 258.81 °E). Our work was carried out on HRSC and CTX images and was focussed at mapping at different scales faults, scarps and grabens and identifying their cross-cutting relationship in order to assess the strain field responsible for their formation.
