May 31st, 2016 - MESSENGER Release 15 has been loaded into ODE. This release includes the redelivery of calibrated products created from data acquired through the end of Mercury orbital operations on 30 April 2015, the redelivery of advanced products created from data acquired through 17 March 2014, and the delivery of advanced products created from data acquired through 30 April 2015. New products for this release include additional Mercury maps and digital elevation models (DEMs). The products in this delivery reflect improved calibrations and corrections as well as the incorporation of MESSENGER-derived refined values for Mercury's radius and rotational elements and the global DEM.
