     A table of data acquisition parameters from radio occultation            
opportunities during the first 5-6 months of Mapping.  The table gives dates  
and times, DSN antenna numbers, signal-to-noise ratio, and file names of the  
ODR file for each observation opportunity.  There are also terse indicators   
of data quality.  Detached label  OCCLOGM1.LBL  describes the format and      
content of OCCLOGM1.TAB in detail.

     A detached PDS label defining a document which describes MGS Orbit       
determination at Goddard Space Flight Center.  The discussion includes        
constraints from the Mars Orbiting Laser Altimeter (MOLA).  The label         
points toward a PostScript version of the document (AAS99328.PS) and a        
version created using LaTeX (AAS99328.TEX), both of which are included        
in this directory.
