Smith, D., G. Neumann, P. Ford, E. A. Guinness, and S. Slavney, Mars Global Surveyor Laser Altimeter Aggregated Experiment Data Record, NASA Planetary Data System, MGS-M-MOLA-1-AEDR-L0-V1.0, 1999.
The MOLA AEDR data set contains the raw altimetry measurements acquired by the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter on the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft. The AEDR data are used as input to the MOLA Precision Experiment Data Record (PEDR) data set, in which the altimetry data have been corrected according to precise measurements of the orbit. The PEDR data set is preferred for science analysis.
