During the course of the MESSENGER mission the EPPS science team may update previously released data products or documentation; for example, updates may occur due to changes in calibration data or procedures. Updates will be reported in this file. Section A of this file contains an entry for each MESSENGER release with general information about the contents of the release, in order from newest to oldest. Updates to previously released files are reported in these entries, along with any known errata. Section B of this file contains general notes, if any, concerning the archive as a whole. ******** SECTION A ******** RELEASE NUMBER: 15 RELEASE DATE: 2016-05-06 DATA COVERAGE: 2008-01-14 to 2015-04-30 PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR This is the final release for this volume which includes a complete redelivery of all reduced data products. These have been reprocessed using the final SPICE parameters, all final calibrations and corrections, as applicable with the following exceptions: 1) FIPS PCHANG, ERPCHANG, ESPEC, FLUXMAP, NOBS, NTP, and ROTMSO advanced products have been regenerated in the orbital period, i.e. Mar 23, 2011 through Mar 17, 2014. This delivery also includes these products in the new data period, i.e. from Mar 18, 2014 through Apr 30, 2015 (EOO). PRODUCT_VERSION_ID has been increamented by 1 for the regenerated products (Mar 23, 2011 through Mar 17, 2014), set to "V01" for products in the new data period. 2) There are 3 FIPS ROTMSO DDR products that are new: FIPS_ROTMSO_2008014_DDR FIPS_ROTMSO_2008280_DDR FIPS_ROTMSO_2009272_DDR This is due to the delivery of FIPS Rotation Matrices products for the orbital period and the 3 flyby days (14 Jan 2008, 06 Oct 2008, 29 Sep 2009). These products have PRODUCT_VERSION_ID = "V01". 3) There are 1883 FIPS DDR products that are new. These products are being released now as the spatial domain over which these products are delivered has been greatly extended. Previously, delivery of these products was only for orbits that were within about 4 hrs local time of a noon-midnight orbit. Now, data is delivered from every magnetosphere crossing. These products have all PRODUCT_VERSION_ID = "V01". 4) There are 13 FIPS DDR products that have been removed from the archive due to more rigorous quality checking: DATA/FIPS_ERPCHANG/2012/JUN/FIPS_ERPCHANG_2012162_DDR DATA/FIPS_ERPCHANG/2012/JUN/FIPS_ERPCHANG_2012163_DDR DATA/FIPS_ERPCHANG/2012/SEP/FIPS_ERPCHANG_2012265_DDR DATA/FIPS_ERPCHANG/2013/AUG/FIPS_ERPCHANG_2013232_DDR DATA/FIPS_ESPEC/2012/SEP/FIPS_ESPEC_2012265_DDR DATA/FIPS_ESPEC/2013/AUG/FIPS_ESPEC_2013232_DDR DATA/FIPS_FLUXMAP/2012/SEP/FIPS_FLUXMAP_2012265_DDR DATA/FIPS_FLUXMAP/2013/AUG/FIPS_FLUXMAP_2013232_DDR DATA/FIPS_NOBS/2012/SEP/FIPS_NOBS_2012265_DDR DATA/FIPS_NTP/2012/SEP/FIPS_NTP_2012265_DDR DATA/FIPS_NTP/2013/AUG/FIPS_NTP_2013232_DDR DATA/FIPS_PCHANG/2012/SEP/FIPS_PCHANG_2012265_DDR DATA/FIPS_PCHANG/2013/AUG/FIPS_PCHANG_2013232_DDR 5) There are no FIPS ARRDIR products to be released as part of the Final Delivery 15. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELEASE NUMBER: 14 RELEASE DATE: 2015-10-09 Notes: No DDR delivery. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELEASE NUMBER: 13 RELEASE DATE: 2015-03-06 DATA COVERAGE: 2011-03-23 to 2014-03-17 PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR This release includes the following updates and product redeliveries: 1) Full redelivery of the FIPS DDR products (except for FIPS_ARRDIR products that are being superseded) due to the new FIPS calibration introduced in release 12 CDR's and improvements made to the SEP filtering procedure to reduce the orbits with SEP-contminated data. The delivery of these products cover: FIPS_ESPEC from 2011-03-26 through 2013-03-17 FIPS_NOBS from 2011-03-23 through 2013-03-17 FIPS_NTP from 2011-03-26 through 2013-03-17 FIPS_PCHANG from 2011-03-26 through 2013-03-17 2) New products: FIPS_FLUXMAP (replacing FIPS_ARRDIR as it is a more useful representation of plasma behavior), FIPS_ERPCHANG (a 2-D pitch angle product), and FIPS_ROTMSO (a viewing normalization product). The initial delivery of these products covers: FIPS_FLUXMAP from 2011-03-26 through 2014-03-17 FIPS_ERPCHANG from 2011-03-26 through 2014-03-17 FIPS_ROTMSO from 2011-03-23 through 2014-03-17 3) Due to the retirement of the FIPS_ARRDIR product with this release, the data set version is updated to 2.0 and the DATA_SET_ID is updated to MESS-E/V/H/SW-EPPS-3-FIPS-DDR-V2.0. Version 2.0 of this archive fully supersedes Version 1.0. Gaps noted in this archive are appropriate and fall into two categories: 1) Small periods where there is no EDR data 2) Larger periods where the regions of interest were not observed Please see the EPPS_DDR_SIS for additional details on new products. Changes in relevant documents: Modified the EDR SIS document "EPPS_EDR_SIS" to remove reference to unused .CSV files and change occurrences of "experimental" to "experiment" in reference to EDRs. Modified the DDR SIS to incorporate updates for new and retired products. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELEASE NUMBER: 12 RELEASE DATE: 2014-09-05 DATA COVERAGE: 2013-09-18 to 2014-03-17 PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: None. 1) Added the FIPS FIPA_F*.TAB files and associated labels to the CALIBRATION directory. 2) The EPPS_CDR_SIS and EPPS_FIPS_EDR2CDR documents are updated to include information about the FIPS FIPA_F* calibration files and further discussion about FIPS calibration. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELEASE NUMBER: 11 RELEASE DATE: 2014-03-07 DATA COVERAGE: 2012-03-26 to 2013-03-17 PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: None.
