Data Set Abstract |
This data set contains the Magellan Global Vector Data Record
(GVDR), a sorted collection of scattering and emission
measurements from the Magellan Mission. The sorting is into a
grid of equal area 'pixels' distributed regularly about
the planet. For data acquired from the same pixel but in
different observing geometries, there is a second level of
sorting to accommodate the different geometrical conditions. The
'pixel' dimension is 18.225 km. The GVDR is presented
in Sinusoidal Equal Area (equatorial), Mercator (equatorial), and
Polar Stereographic (polar) projections. |
