The Mars Climate Sounder (MCS) Derived Data Record (DDR) is generated from the MCS RDR data products. The DDR will consists of profiles of successfully retrieved geophysical parameters, estimated retrieval of observation errors, and the geometry information to properly locate the profiles in space and time. The individual profiles are stored in time order in the data file.

MCS DDR products have the following file names:

yyyymmddhh_DDR.TAB (with detached PDS label)

where:

yyyymmdd = date

hh = hour

In ODE, DDR products have the following Product IDs:

YYYYMMDDHH_DDR.TAB
