IUVS CERTIFIED PDS4
                  Currently available data extend through August 15, 2024 (Ls 312, MY 37) [ongoing]
                  (MAVEN Mars orbit insertion occurred Sep 21, 2014; Ls 199.8, MY 32)





    The Echelle Mode
    The echelle data bundle contains data products for scans taken during the side segments of the MAVEN orbit when IUVS has pointing priority. From orbit to orbit when IUVS has priority, it alternates between the echelle mode and the low spectral resolution corona mode.

    Software Interface Specification (SIS) - Description of the instrument and data structures

    Raw Data - Maven/IUVS raw FITS files will contain both images and tables. Many fields are direct unconverted copies of telemetry produced by the instrument. The units for such fields, data numbers (DN), may represent ADC counts, encoder steps, discrete time intervals, and so on. See the SIS section 6.1.1.Table 18: Raw data file structure.

    Calibrated Data - The data files are similar in structure to the raw products but they are expressed as spectral radiance in units of kilorayleighs/nm. Estimates of uncertainty are included. See the SIS section 6.1.2 Table 19: Calibrated data file structure.

    Processed Data
    Processed data are stored as FITS files with detached XML labels and are calibrated data that have been reduced by isolating emission features and implementing spatial binning to facilitate processing. See the SIS section 6.1.3 Table 24: Echelle processed data file structure.

    Retrieving Data
    The MAVEN/IUVS data are in FITS format with detached XML labels (Need to acquire a FITS reader?)

    Selected data can be retrieved in 2 ways
    1) Downloading an index, selecting components and uploading your selection.
    Indices that tabulate information associated with each product are available. The associated geometry is for the subspacecraft point and for the time of the midpoint of the observation.
    a. Select your index
    Calibrated Data before 2014-11-12 (csv)
    Calibrated Data after 2014-11-12 (csv)
    Processed (csv) No data processed between 2019 02 05 and 2019 05 01
    b. Sort and make your selection
    c. Upload the URN values from your revised index (note the total uncompressed file size before requesting)

    2) Selecting specific parameters and requesting limited data files
