Planetary Missions Data Analysis Program (PMDAP)
The ROSES 2009
Planetary Mission Data Analysis Program
Appendix C.11, specifies that:
The objective of the Planetary Mission Data Analysis Program (PMDAP) is to enhance the scientific return
of Planetary Science Division missions by broadening the scientific participation in the analysis of archived
data collected by those missions.The PMDAP is not intended to overlap other active data analysis programs
(for example, the Cassini Data Analysis program, the Jupiter Data Analysis program- which is now incorporated into the
Outer Planets Research program, or the Mars Data Analysis program).
The following planetary missions are a representative, but not complete, alphabetical list of missions for which archived
data is available in the PDS:   Dawn, Deep Impact, Deep Space 1, EPOXI, Galileo, Giotto, Hayabusa, Magellan, MESSENGER,
Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous (NEAR), New Horizons (non-Jupiter data), Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Pioneer Venus, Stardust,
and Voyager.
Mission data available from the Planetary Data System (PDS).
The research solicitation states:
It is the responsibility of the investigators selected for this program to acquire any needed data.
Therefore, before submitting a proposal, the investigator should determine that required data are available.
PMDAP supports investigations that use only publicly available and released data. Data to be used in proposed
investigations must be available in the Planetary Data System (PDS) or other publicly accessible archive(s),
such as related planetary data in the NASA astrophysics data archives, 30 days prior to the submission
due date for PMDAP proposals

Other Data Within PDS
Data from the various instruments are curated and maintained by PDS Discipline
Nodes for which the data is relevant. Those nodes generally provide data set and
discipline specific information.
The following Discipline Nodes have additional information:
Ancillary data (SPICE files) can be obtained from the
NAIF Node
