This compact disc contains archival data products obtained from inertial      
measurement unit (IMU) observations from the Mars Exploration Rover           
mission(s). This volume includes data products from the Entry, Descent, and   
Landing (EDL) phases of each rover mission, specifically reconstructed        
spacecraft positions, spacecraft velocities, atmospheric densities,           
atmospheric pressures and atmospheric temperatures.

The disc is organized according to the PDS standard for "one data set,        
one volume."  This file (AAREADME.TXT), a PDS volume object definition        
(VOLDESC.CAT), and the listing of errors and changes (ERRATA.TXT) are         
included at the root level.  The following directories of descriptive         
material are also at the root level:                                          
                                                                              
          CATALOG   contains descriptive files for cataloging the data        
                    on this disc.                                             
                                                                              
          INDEX     contains index information (table of contents) on each of 
                    the data files included in this disc.                     
                                                                              
Text files, including data files of ASCII text and all labels (*.LBL          
files) and tables (*.TAB files), are delimited with carriage-return           
(ASCII 13) line-feed (ASCII 10) pairs at the end of each line.                
Detached labels and text files (*.TXT file names) have fixed length           
records of 80 bytes to facilitate their use as either fixed-length            
record files or as stream files with carriage-return line-feed delimiters.
