Data Set Overview
=================
This shape model of Phoebe is based on 208 Cassini Imaging Science
Subsystem narrow and wide angle camera (ISSNA and ISSWA) images. The shape
model was prepared by Robert Gaskell on August 4, 2012.
Coordinate system:
BODY609_POLE_RA = ( 356.90 0. 0. )
BODY609_POLE_DEC = ( +77.88 0. 0. )
BODY609_PM = ( 178.58 +931.639 0. )
(For help in interpreting the values of the SPICE assignments above, see
the document 'PCK Required Reading' (PCK.REQ), available at NAIF and in
the document directory of this data set.)
The parameters of the model are as follows:
Number of landmarks: 522
RMS position uncertainty: 147 m/dof (degree of freedom)
Pointing uncertainty: .045 mrad
Pointing residual: .275 mrad
Number of observations: 22555
Observations per landmark: 43.2
RMS landmark location residual: 184 m/dof
The models were originally prepared in the Implicitly Connected
Quadrilateral (ICQ) format. Vertex-facet format versions, derived from
the ICQ versions, are also provided. The filenames are
phoebe_quad512q.tab and phoebe_ver512q.tab, where 512 is the value
of Q (an indicator of the resolution). See below for the full
definition of Q and the ICQ format. For additional information about the
shape models, see Gaskell et al. (2008).
The file 'phoebeimagelist.tab' is a list of the Cassini ISSNA and ISSWA
images used to generate this model. These images are archived in PDS
under the data set ID CO-S-ISSNA/ISSWA-2-EDR-V1.0.
A text file, 'icqmodel.asc' is provided in the 'document' directory
which describes the ICQ format and the derivation of the
vertex-facet versions.
Modification History
====================
Version 1.0 of this model was archived in 2011. For V1.0, all images were
converted to 8-bit before processing. For V2.0, the processing code had
been updated to handle 16-bit, so the 12-bit Cassini images were left
as-is for the processing. Version 2.0 was archived in 2013.
