### Map Projections
- Data are provided in a simple cylindrical (equirectangular) map projection.
-- Data are orthorectified to a sphere using the IAU radius => 1737.4km (sphere)

- Data are made available in 0 – 360 positive East coordinate system with a center longitude of 180 degrees using planetocentric latitude.
-- For observational data, pixel scale or resolution should be maintained at native scale, (i.e., do not up sample or down sample data.)
-- For derived data (e.g., DTMs), data should be made available at a reasonable resolution that avoids extrapolation of information.
+- For observational data, pixel scale or resolution should be maintained at native scale or better, (i.e., do not average data.)

- Data for polar areas (latitudes > 65˚ North or South) should use a polar stereographic projection centered at the pole.

### Body Parameters
-The Report of the IAU Working Group on Cartographic Coordinates and Rotational Elements: 2015 (2018) and the [Final Report of the Lunar Critical Data Products Specific Action Team](https://www.lpi.usra.edu/mapsit/standup-committees/LCDP-SAT-REPORT-20211110.pdf) (LCDP-SAT) body parameters will be used. This includes a sphere radius of 1737.4km, the 2008 JPL DE 421 ephemeris rotated to the mean Earth/polar axis (ME) system and rotation parameters as defined in Table 2 (Archinal, et al., 2018).

### Ephemeris Information
-- All sun, spacecraft, sensor, and target body ephemeris information is to be provided either by [Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF)](https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/) as SPICE kernels or in NAIF SPICE compliant format by another provider (e.g., a mission team). This includes sensor and target positions, velocities, and orientations as well as sensor parameters such as distortion models.
