DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION
Data Set Overview
  =================
    This data set includes spectra of meteorite samples reported by M.
    J. Gaffey in the 1976 paper 'Spectral reflectance characteristics of
    the meteorite classes' (JGR 81, 905) [GAFFEY1976].
 
 
  Parameters
  ==========
    The spectrum files contain wavelength, reflectance, and error.  Many
    spectra have no error information and the error column for these
    contains a null value.  Reflectance values have not been scaled.
 
 
  Processing
  ==========
    The details of the data processing are reported in the original
    paper, Gaffey (1976) JGR 81, 905 [GAFFEY1976].
