Instructions to Reviewers

The Planetary Data System requires a data set to pass a peer review before it can be archived. The purpose of the review is to ensure that the data set is scientifically useful, well documented, and accessible to scientists. PDS is conducting this review of the MGS MOC RDR Data Product according to the customary procedure for mission-generated data sets that are delivered over time. Before data acquisition begins, the design of the data products is reviewed as demonstrated in a Software Interface Specification (SIS) document and a simulated sample product.  Then when actual data are delivered, they are checked to ensure that they comply with the design specified in the SIS.

As a reviewer of the MGS MOC RDR Data Product, you are asked to read the SIS documents as if you were preparing to use the data in your research. Below is a list of suggested review criteria. Feel free to comment on any aspect of the data set. If a criterion is not your area of expertise, you do not have to comment on it.

If you care to read additional information about the peer review process, please follow the link below.

Please email your comments to Rafael Alanis by Monday, April 10, 2017. Be as specific as you can in order to help the data providers improve the data set. Thank you for participating in the MGS MOC RDR Data Product Peer Review.
