This is technically not an Add-on, but an Add-on creator for all Mars Global Surveyor images ever taken using the Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) instrument.
[edit] Description
DJ Barney has written a script that works with an entire database of all the Mars Global Surveyor images ever taken using the Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) instrument. The script is a World Wind Layer generator, a lot like the script used to show the latest earthquake data, for example. In this case though you provide your own data to construct into a layer. This list can be in any form as long as it contains the alphanumeric MOC image identification numbers. If these are there (in a directory listing, for example) then the script can make a layer from them that will have markers correctly placed on Mars for each ID, and a description and link to the image in the Planetary Data System.
