Mars Express Radio Science Occultation Data from 2015

A Mars Express Radio Science dataset collected during the extended mission phase from 2015-01-01 to 2016-12-31. The data is from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and covers a specific occultation measurement period from 2015-04-04T00:07:34 to 2015-04 05T13:31:42.500.

Use Cases

• Modeling Martian atmospheric density profiles based on radio occultation measurements.
• Analyzing signal propagation anomalies for planetary science based on the described occultation data.
• Studying temporal atmospheric changes on Mars based on the 2015-2016 mission timeframe.

Strengths

• Data originates from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
• Covers a defined two-year mission period from 2015-01-01 to 2016-12-31.
• Includes a precise measurement window from 2015-04-04T00:07:34 to 2015-04-05T13:31:42.500.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
