Ok, could you show me, a 1969 picture of the landing site, having all the details seen below ? Double crater is extremely detailed, show me a 1969 picture of the Double crater having the same details.
Ove, are you just completely incapable of doing any real research yourself? Apollo 11 only shot three rolls on the lunar surface: Magazines 37, 39 & 40. I found more than a dozen photos of the double crater at very high resolution. I found them on three different sites in less than a minute.
Look 'em up yourself or admit you're just trolling.
vvvvvvv See my sig line. vvvvvvv

No, it is made using photogrammetry. He also told you exactly how you could find the images from which the photogrammetry was done, and I even did you the courtesy of providing you with one.
USGS already had a very basic idea of where things were thanks to Lunar Orbiter, and the ground photographs, 16mm and TV provided the detail.
How else are you suggesting they got the information, or haven't you thought that through yet?
Magnificent oblique view of the eastern side of Tycho's central peak acquired when the Sun was relatively high above the horizon. From the viewpoint of LROC the Sun was behind and a bit to the north, so shadows are mostly hidden, thus subtle changes in surface brightness dominate the scene. Image width ~8 km, north is to the right, M1167178525LR [NASA/GSFC/Arizona State University].

It's not possible to make this detailed 1978 map of the Double crater from your surface images.

Just for fun, seeing as there's a nice picture of Tycho, I made a 3D model of Tycho's central peak using Japanese data. You can download it here:

Unzip the file and open the html file that's in there. Hold left or right mouse buttons to zoom and pan around.
Have fun
