DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION |
:Data Set Overview::The data from the Rosetta Navigation Camera (NavCam) was extracted byBernhard Geiger; the data set was constructed and submitted by MaudBarthelemy on behalf of the Planetary Science Archives (PSA).The data have been observed and measured from 25th Aug 2015 to 22ndSep 2015. The frequency of the navigation slots was of one imageevery five hours, with interruption by manoeuvres. 130 navigationimages were taken. In addition 274 context images and 3 calibrationimages were taken, which makes a total of 407 images.2 navigation images were not acquired due to SSMM recoveryactivities. 45 context images were not acquired also because ofrecovery activities. There is 1 context image with lost rows.The orbiter was executing far fly-by arcs at distance between 400kmand 460km. The phase angle had a minimum of 70 degrees in the firstpart of the MTP. Then, there was a transition to the night side withphase angles up to 120 degrees and a return to terminator from the16th sep.From 6th Sep, the distance was reduced to a range between 310km and330km.All images in this data set are raw and uncalibrated data taken usingthe imaging mode. The data set contains images resolved using bothNavCams onboard the Rosetta S/C and the DATA directory is organisedto reflect this with two sub directories: - CAM1 - CAM2CAM2 directory is only present if CAM2 observations are done.After hibernation exit CAM2 was only switched on to confirm its healthstatus in a check-out. During the comet escort phase CAM2 will only beused in the case of a failure of the nominal camera CAM1.For each image, the user can also find the FITS format of theobservation.:Filename Convention::The filenaming convention for all data levels is given by: __.

(Note that also for checkout and stellar calibration images the comet nucleus distance is given here.)- SUB SPACECRAFT LATITUDE and SUB SPACECRAFT LONGITUDE: The latitudeand longitude of the sub-spacecraft point derived from the FlightDynamics body-fixed reference frame implicitly specified by theinformation provided in the comet attitude file CATT.- RIGHT ASCENSION and DECLINATION: Right Ascension and Declination ofthe camera boresight direction in equatorial J2000 inertial frame.- CELESTIAL NORTH CLOCK ANGLE: The direction of celestial north at the center of the image - measured from the upward direction, clockwise to the direction toward celestial north.- SOLAR ELONGATION: The angle between the line of sight of observation and the direction of the Sun.All geometric values are calculated for the time t : IMAGE TIME(and not START TIME).:
