The LROC Team also released several new RDR products:

36 NAC DTMs - COMPTONW, FLAMSTDVNT, FONTENELLEX, FRSHCRATER20, NEWCRATER3, OCNSPRCLRM1, TMAYERIMP, VITELLO2, HPONDS, HPONDS1, HPONDS2, HPONDS3, HPONDS4, HPONDS5, HPONDS6, HPONDS7, HPONDS8, HPONDS9, HPONDS10, HPONDS11, HPONDS12, HPONDS13, HPONDS14, HPONDS15, HPONDS16, HPONDS17, HPONDS18, HPONDS19, HPONDS20, HPONDS21, HPONDS22, HPONDS23, HPONDS24, HPONDS25, HPONDS26, HPONDS27

19 NAC ROIs - NAC_ROI_APOLLO17HIC_E202N0306, NAC_ROI_APOLLO17HID_E202N0309, NAC_ROI_APOLLO17HIA_E201N0303, NAC_ROI_APOLLO17HIB_E202N0312, NAC_ROI_APOLLO17LOA_E201N0308, NAC_ROI_APOLLO17LOC_E205N0306, NAC_ROI_APOLLO17LOB_E206N0304, NAC_ROI_APOLLO11HIB_E006N0235, NAC_ROI_APOLLO16LOA_E090S0155, NAC_ROI_APOLLO15LOB_E259N0038, NAC_ROI_HLNDPONDLOB_E422N1673, NAC_ROI_HLNDPONDLOA_E426N1671, NAC_ROI_PSIDNIUSHIA_E319N0298, NAC_ROI_IMPCT911HIA_E170S3395, NAC_ROI_IMPCT911LOA_E171S3395, NAC_ROI_IMPCT911HIB_E168S3395, NAC_ROI_RIMPARRYLOA_E077S3430, NAC_ROI_RICCIOLILOB_E032S2857, NAC_ROI_INADCALDLOB_E186N0053

2 WAC ROIs - WAC_ROI_NORTH_SUMMER, WAC_ROI_SOUTH_SUMMER

...and 200 NAC Anaglyph products in the EXTRAS directory.

In addition to the new products released, several issues where corrected in previously released RDR products (NAC_DTM, WAC Polar Illumination, WAC North and South Pole Summer Mosaics). See the RDR volume ERRATA.TXT file for complete information on what changed with the volume.

To date, the LROC Team has delivered 1,724,747 LROC images - totaling 215.6 TB for EDR (raw data) and over 22,563 derived (RDR) data products to the NASA Planetary Data System. The current RDR collection is comprised of: NAC DTMs, NAC ROI Mosaics, NAC North/South Polar Mosaics, WAC Global Morphology mosaic, WAC Monthly Global mosaics; WAC DTM, WAC Color Shade, WAC Empirically Normalized Nearly Global mosaic, WAC 7-band color mosaics (regional area),  and WAC ROI mosaics. The RDR dataset also include the following products in the EXTRAS directory: NAC Anaglyphs, Mare and Lobate Scarp Shapefiles. The LROC Team has also released a PDF formated NAC Stereo Catalog that contains all NAC pair and triplet observations that can be used for generating Digital Terrain Models.
