Data Set Abstract |
This data set contains Raw data taken by the New Horizons
Long Range Reconnaissance Imager
instrument during the
Pluto encounter
mission phase. This is VERSION 3.0 of this data set.
This data set contains LORRI observations taken during the
the Approach (Jan-Jul, 2015), Encounter, Departure, and
Transition mission sub-phases, including flyby observations
taken on 14 July, 2015, and departure and calibration data
through late October, 2016. Departure observations include
a ring search of the Pluto system and 1994 JR1 observations.
This data set completes the Pluto mission phase deliveries for
LORRI.
This is version 3.0 of this dataset. Changes since version 2.0 include
the addition of data downlinked between the end of January, 2016 and the
end of October, 2016, completing the delivery of all data covering the
Pluto Encounter and subsequent Calibration Campaign. It includes multi-
map observations from the Approach phase, observations of the moons, hi-
res, full-frame observations from Pluto Encounter and Departure, sliver
maps, and ring search observations. There may be some overlap between
prior datasets and this dataset, due to only partial, windowed, or lossy
data in prior datasets. Observations at closest approach to Pluto are
marked with _CA in the Request ID. This dataset also includes functional
tests from the Calibration Campaign, including a regular observation of
NGC3532. Finally it includes the first set of distant KBO observations.
Also, updates were made to the calibration files, documentation, and
catalog files.
There were minor changes to the level 2 LORRI calibration process, as
well as to the LORRI calibration constants for the final Pluto P3 PDS
delivery.
The process change involves gap removal during calibration. Files
with gaps come in many flavors, depending on where the gap lies within
the image. This update recognizes some additional possiblities, mainly
that the gap might be close to the bottom or top of the image (and
therefore the previous algorithm would fail because it filled the gap
with median pixel info from both above and below the gap). The new
algorithm will take the info from one side of the gap exclusively,
when appropriate. |
