The following files are found in this directory: INDXINFO.TXT - The file you are now reading. INDEX.LBL - Detached PDS label for INDEX.TAB. INDEX.TAB - Index table listing all the products in this archive. REPROCESSED.TXT - List of products that have been reprocessed since they were first released. Notes on Using the Index Table The index table in this directory contains one row (or record) for each product in the archive. Columns in the table are separated by commas, and character fields are enclosed in double quotation marks ("). Character fields are left justified, and numeric fields are right justified. Each record ends with ASCII carriage return and line feed characters. This allows the table to be treated as a fixed length record file on computers that support this file type and as a normal text file on other computers. The ".LBL" file is a PDS label that describes the content and structure of the columns in the tables, including column name, format, and description.
