It's June - Better LOLA? Options

[Rick Sternbach]

Okay, It's June 15. Where's the updated LOLA data? I keep finding the stuff from March in all the usual places. Okay, I'm sure it may take a few days, but does anyone have a clue if the LDEMs are going to get cleaner and crisper this time around?

I've already seen a resin casting of a moon globe made from the LDEM_64 data, but I wanted to wait a bit until more blanks were filled in.

I am baffled also by the lack of data density.

it is still early
the mars mola took a bit of time

The LOLA Team discovered and corrected a processing error that affected time

and their PDS labels, and revised EDR labels only (not data files). A revised
product can be identified by the keyword PRODUCT_VERSION_ID = "V1.03" in its
label.

The following data files and corresponding labels, which were previously
included, have been excluded for this and future releases due to poor data
quality.
