| Data Set Abstract |
Abstract ======== The Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS) consists
of two cameras, a Wide Angle Camera (WAC) and a Narrow Angle
Camera (NAC), mounted on a common pivot platform. This dataset
includes the Calibrated Data Record (CDR) version of valid images
than can be turned into physical units, that were acquired during
the cruise phase to Mercury, and includes post- launch checkout
images, flyby images of Earth, Venus, Mercury, images acquired
from Mercury orbit, and inflight calibration images. This CDR
dataset is the product of conversion of raw data (Experiment Data
Records, or EDRs) to one of three options: physical units of
radiance; or radiance factor or I/F, with or without an empirical
correction for time variable instrument responsivity. In addition
to the imagery, anciliary information (including calibration
files used to calibrate the data) is included. |
