There's stuff missing though. If the orientation is correct (there's no guarantee), the triangular dark patch at 7 oclock is absent or moved and intrudes much more into the disk than the brownish blob at 6 oclock on the Google Mars version.

Also, the dark area surrounding valles marineris (3 oclock) is much more extensive and straddles both hemispheres.

I would have thought that they are big changes that I don't think can be put down to resolution alone.
