The Precision Experiment Data Record (PEDR) Sampler archive contains derived altimetry profile data acquired by MOLA during the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) mission stored as ASCII tables (superseded by MGS-M-MOLA-3-PEDR-L1A-V1.0).

Data Set Abstract The MGS Sampler contains MOLA PEDR altimetry profiles in both binary andASCII formats. These ASCII tables contain calibrated MOLA ranges, energies, and topography for 18 contingency passes, Fall 1997. The tables have 29 columns, delimited by spaces. The tables contain radii, topography, areoid heights, spacecraft location, and instrument data. The information in these files is virtually identical to the binary PEDRs. The binary tables contain additional engineering data.
