Phobos and Deimos astrometric observations from Viking

This article describes the reduced astrometric observations of Phobos and Deimos derived from Viking Orbiter 1 and 2 imaging data. This data set spans four years from 1976 to 1980, contains 275 sets of spacecraft-centered, right ascension and declination observations, and has a limiting accuracy of a few km (1 sigma). The details of observation formulation and use for ephemeris improvement are given.
