Data Set Overview : This RDR is produced by OPGS to provide bit scaling that is optimized for the tools of, and completed within the time requirements imposed by, the rover planners. It is identical in fashion to the Science EDR that is produced by SOAS. If the Operations EDR is in 8-bit format as a result of onboard 12 to 8-bit scaling using a Lookup Table (LUT), then an Inverse LUT is to be used to rescale the 8 lowest bits to the 12 lowest bits in the 16-bit signed integer. Processing : This Operations RDR is produced by OPGS/MIPL using the Mars Suite of VICAR image processing software. If the input, the Operations EDR, is in 8-bit format as a result of onboard 12 to 8-bit scaling using a Lookup Table (LUT), then an Inverse LUT is used to rescale the 8 lowest bits to the 12 lowest bits in the 16-bit signed integer. Note: The operations RDRs differ from the science RDRs in 2 ways: the input files (EDRs) and the RDR processing. The operations EDRs are raw uncalibrated data and are considered part of the critical path in rover traversability operations. In contrast, the operations EDRs are processed further using the SOAS software to create the science EDRs. This is done to recover the original 12-bit raw measurement obtained by the science camera to within the uncertainty of the noise in the original measured value. Differences between operations and science RDRs are based on the software used to create them; the MIPL Mars Program Suite and SOAS software are used to create the operations and science products, respectively. Data : 1 band, 16-bit signed integer, Dual PDS/VICAR (OPGS) binary file. The RDR data product is comprised of radiometrically decalibrated and/or camera model corrected and/or geometrically altered versions of the raw camera data, in both single and multi-frame (mosaic) form. Most RDR data products will have PDS labels, or if generated by MIPL (OPGS), dual PDS/VICAR labels. Non-labeled RDRs include the Terrain products (Mesh and Wedge). The following is a list of the types of ILUT files along with the Product Type Identifier, which is an element in the formal RDR file name: Data Product Linearized Non-Linearized ------------ ---------- -------------- Inverse LUT RDR ILF ILL Inverse LUT RDR (Sub-frame) ISF ISL Inverse LUT RDR (Downsampled) IDN IDL Inverse LUT RDR (Thumbnail) ITH IHN Software : The MIPL Mars Program Suite was used to generate these RDRs. Media/Format : The data set will initially be delivered and kept online. Upon Mission completion, the Hazcam Operations RDRs will be delivered to PDS on DVD.
