LVS computes the final landing position by comparing the aquired imagery with onboard maps and, further, detects hazards and/or obstacles (such as boulders or outcroppings) to be avoided. In the case where hazards are observed, LVS can direct the spacecraft to a safer location. All this must transpire within the very small period of time of 10 seconds.
