| Data Set Abstract |
This data set is a digital archive of images acquired by the
Viking Orbiter 1 and 2 spacecraft. The archive will include the
best available Experiment Data Record (EDR) versions of images
acquired by the Viking Orbiter Visual Imaging Subsystems (VIS).
The archive is stored on compact read-only optical disk media
(CD-ROM) for distribution. The EDR image data are stored on
CD-ROM in a compressed format that allows exact reconstruction of
the original image. The images were compressed in order to reduce
the number of CD-ROMs required for the archive. The average
Viking Orbiter image is compressed by a factor of about 3.5. Each
CD-ROM in the archive also includes documentation about the
organization and contents of the disk. Software is included to
provide programmers with tools to decompress image files. The
CD-ROM has index files containing information about all the
images stored in the archive. These index files can be loaded
into a database management system to help the user locate images
of interest. |
