According to a surface age map of Mars based on US Geological Survey data, the area around Srīpur is from the Noachian epoch, which places the area's age at 3.8 to 3.5 billion years ago.[3] The crater floor is relatively flat, except for a small craterlet toward east of the center, and is approximately Script error: No such module "convert". above zero altitude in elevation. Its rim averages about Script error: No such module "convert". above zero altitude, making it Script error: No such module "convert". deep. The area south of the crater is about the same elevation as the crater floor.[2]
