Data Set Overview
=================
NASA's International Halley Watch has created a Comet Halley
Archive. The collection of data spans the full wavelength range as
submitted by scientists to the IHW. The observations belong to one
of the following Disciplines: Amateur, Astrometry, Infrared Studies,
Large-Scale Phenomena, Meteor Studies, Near-Nucleus Studies,
Photometry and Polarimetry, Radio Studies, and Spectroscopy and
Spectrophotometry. The data collected by these nine disciplines
were augmented by Spacecraft measurements. The data were submitted
to IHW, but the evaluation and selection for the Archive has been
the primary responsibility of the Discipline Specialist Teams for
each network in cooperation with the Lead Center. The data from
the INFRARED PHOTOMETRY Network contains 2204 observations spanning
dates from 1984 Sep 14 through 1988 Apr 08.
