The present work reports on the construction of an isopach map of basin-filling materials based on data obtained from buried craters and partially buried craters in the Tranquillitatis and Nectaris basins. The data suggest that materials filling irregular maria are thin. Improved relief measurements based on Apollo metric photography are required for more accurate topographic mapping.
