Data Set Abstract Abstract ======== This data set consists of the MESSENGER MASCS UVVS+VIRS combined derived data records, also known as DDRs. The UVVS+VIRS DDRs consist of derived data from UVVS' middle ultraviolet (MUV) photomultiplier tube, and VIRS. Spatially proximate UVVS and VIRS spectra are combined to create a single extended wavelength surface reflectance spectrum from 210 nm to 1450 nm. The combination is conducted by software that locates automatically or with human assistance, the closest best matching VIRS spectrum to a given UVVS spectrum, and combines the two data sets into a single spectrum for that location.
