We have performed a photogeological analysis of the Venera Vega landing sites using Magellan radar images. These seven sites are the only places on Venus where geochemistry measurements were taken. In this study, the updated coordinates of the landing sites are used and the landing circle has a radius with an admissible error of about 150 km.
