    Retrieving Data
    The MAVEN/NGIMS data are in ACSII format with detached XML labels.


    Selected data can be retrieved in 2 ways
    1) Downloading an index, selecting components and uploading your selection.
    Indices that tabulate information associated with each product are available. The associated geometry is given at the time of the midpoint of the observation. (Note – geometry at periapse is available from the NAIF SPK file.)
    a. Select your index
    b. Sort and make your selection
    c. Upload the URN values from your revised index (note the total uncompressed file size before requesting)


    2) Selecting specific parameters and requesting limited data files
