Q.  Can I order AIRS maps, and do they cost anything?
  

A.  We do not create maps of our data products except for our own studies.
We have found that researchers prefer to create their own maps after
filtering the data sets according to their own requirements.

All the AIRS data products are freely available for download via ftp
or web page access. Documentation and simple modules to break open
the HDF-EOS data files are also available at the GES DISC AIRS Support
Web Page. Here are the URLs:
