Investigation and remediation of false topographic perception phenomena observed on Chang'E-1 lunar imagery

► A systematic study of the FTPP problem based on the Chinese Chang'E-1 imagery. ► FTPP is positively correlated with latitudes in the north hemisphere of the Moon. ► FTPP is positively correlated with crater's depth-diameter ratio at similar latitude. ► An effective approach for FTPP remediation based on wavelet transform techniques.
