| The ROSES 2018 Discovery Data Analysis Program (DDAP) Appendix C.11 | ||
| This program element accepts proposals via a two-step proposal submission process described in Section 2 of Appendix C.1 The Planetary Science Division Research Program Overview. Mandatory Step-1 proposals are due August 30, 2018, and Step-2 proposals are due November 1, 2018. | ||

| The objective of the Discovery Data Analysis Program (DDAP) is to enhance the scientific return of Discovery Program missions by broadening the scientific participation in the analysis of data, both recent and archived, collected by Discovery missions. | ||
| The following is a list of Discovery Missions or Discovery Missions of Opportunity for which archived data is available: NEAR, Stardust, Genesis, Deep Impact, MESSENGER, Dawn, Kepler/K2, EPOXI and Stardust-NExT. | ||

| The DDAP supports investigations that use only data available in the Planetary Data System (PDS) or equivalent publicly accessible archive(s). The data must be archived and publicly available 30 days prior to the submission deadline for DDAP proposals. Spacecraft data that have not been placed in such archives are not eligible for use in DDAP investigations. In all cases, it is the responsibility of the DDAP investigator to acquire any necessary data. Investigators are encouraged to contact the archive for assistance in identifying specifics of available datasets. Datasets to be used in the proposed work must be clearly and specifically identified in the proposal. Regardless of the archive(s) used, if the data to be analyzed have known issues that might represent an obstacle to analysis, the proposers must demonstrate clearly and satisfactorily how such potential difficulties will be overcome. | |
| Data products produced by funded DDAP investigations must be made publicly available, following the guidelines described in Section 3.6 of Appendix C.1 Planetary Science Overview ("Data Management Plans and Archiving"). Proposed data products for delivery to the PDS must be clearly described, appropriate time and effort for delivery and ingestion must be budgeted, and the proposal must include a letter from the manager of the appropriate PDS data node. For additional information, refer to the Individual Proposer's Archiving Guide . Data products, including maps, improved calibrations, etc., must be submitted to the PDS or the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), as appropriate, by the end of the funded research period, unless the investigator explicitly makes a case in the proposal for a later date. | |
