| DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION |
Data Set Overview : This data set consists of images of the geologic context of each target sampled with the ChemCam Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectro- meters (LIBS). The Remote Micro-Imager (RMI) image field-of-view of about 20 mrad for 1024 pixels is adequate to localize the laser pits by comparing the image taken before and after the laser activities. The depth-of-field varies from 4 to 1000 mm as function of the target distance (respectively between 1 and 20 m). Most of the time the exposure time is set by an autoexposure algorithm; It is generally around 20 msec. Parameters : The RMI camera head made of a Thomson-CSF TH7888A detector (1024 x 1024 pixels, 10 bits) and produces monochromatic images. The photometric response is very close to linear up to 670 DN (with a gain setting of 13), while the saturation level is at 840 DN. Processing : The RDRs have been processed to remove dark current, smearing and flat field effects, as well as ghost images from the raw EDRs. The image is also streched before being saved as TIF file. This produces Partially Radiometrically Corrected (PRC) images. These images are generated by JPL's Multimission Image Processing Laboratory (MIPL) under the OPGS subsystem, using a code developed by Olivier Gasnault at Institut de Recherche en Astrophysique et Planetologie (IRAP). Data : Each RMI RDR, also known as Partially Radiometrically Corrected (PRC), is made of a pair of file: a standard TIF file and a detached label text files (LBL). Ancillary Data : The ancillary data in the RDR detached label file are the same than those in the EDR file that was used as input. Coordinate System : The coordinates available in the RDR detached label file are the same than those in the EDR file that was used as input.

| CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE |
Confidence Level Overview : The RMI RDR images are not fully corrected radiometrically and are only meant to be used for qualitative interpretation of the context at small scales. Review : This ChemCam archive has undergone a standard Planetary Data System peer review. Data Coverage and Quality : Similar to ChemCam LIBS coverage. Limitations : See confidence note above.
