DATA_SET_TERSE_DESCRIPTION |
The Initial Experiment Gridded Data Record (IEGDR) archive (V1.0)
contains preliminary versions of the MEGDRs, which are global
topographic maps of Mars generated using MGS-MOLA altimetry data
(superseded by MGS-M-MOLA-5-IEGDR-L3-V2.0).
|
DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION |
The IEGDR product is a global map of planetary radius, areiod,
topography, and number of observations, derived from MOLA PEDR products
and aggregated into latitude-longitude bins. The IEGDR is released in
two formats, an ASCII table and an image. The table (this data set) has
one row for each latitude-longitude bin, from 90 to -90 degrees latitude
and from 0 to 360 degrees longitude. Values for planetary radius, areoid,
topography, and number of observations per bin are stored as columns in
the table.

ABSTRACT_TEXT |
The IEGDR product is a global map of planetary radius,
areiod,topography, and number of observations, derived from MOLA
PEDR products and aggregated into latitude-longitude bins. The
IEGDR is released in two formats, an ASCII table and an image.
The table (this data set) has one row for each latitude-longitude
bin, from 90 to -90 degrees latitude and from 0 to 360 degrees
longitude. Values for planetary radius, areoid, topography, and
number of observations per bin are stored as columns in the table.
