DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION
Data Set Overview
  =================
    This data set collects the maps of small solar system bodies prepared by
  Phil Stooke of the University of Western Ontario.  A total of 221 map
  sheets, including 18 new ones added in 2011, are included, some based on
  photomosaics from spacecraft images and some based on shaded relief maps
  prepared from spacecraft images.  The targets included are
 
    Asteroids -  243 Ida, 253 Mathilde, 433 Eros, 951 Gaspra, and 25143
  Itokawa.
    Satellites -  M1 Phobos, M2 Deimos, J5 Amalthea, S7 Hyperion, and S11
  Epimetheus.
    Comets - 81P/Wild 2
 
    For these maps, the prime meridian is defined according to the existing
  literature for each body.  For all synchronously rotating satellites
  (Phobos, Deimos, Amalthea, etc.) the prime meridian faces the primary
  planet.  For Gaspra, Ida, and any other objects not in synchronous rotation,
  the prime meridian is that used in the basic descriptive papers by Peter
  Thomas and colleagues for each body, and given in the IAU Working Group on
  Rotational Elements and Cartographic Coordinates triennial reports.
  Longitudes in every case increase in the direction opposite to rotation.
 
  Data
  ====
 
    The map sheets are provided as jpeg files in the document directory of the
  data set, supported by an html browse page (aamapdesc.html) and a document
  describing the map projections used (projections.asc).  In the data
  directory is an index listing the parameters describing each map
  (mapindex.tab).  The information in the browse page, the projection
  description, and the index were provided to PDS by Phil Stooke.
 
  Archiving History
  =================
 
  This data set supersedes the PDS data set EAR-A-3-RDR-STOOKEMAPS-V1.0 which
  was reviewed and archived in 2003.  The new data set has the same content as
  the earlier data set with the addition of 18 new map sheets, and including
  new target bodies 25143 Itokawa and Comet 81P/Wild 2, and new maps for 433
  Eros, Phobos, and Deimos.
