Keshab,

If you're receiving MOS data they will located in $GEMDATA/mos/

You can plot MOS data same as you would other surface data, just treat the MOS 
files as surface gem files, using SFMAP:

SFFILE = $GEMDATA/mos/2009121712_gmos.gem

and set the appropriate area and surface parameter definitions as well.
