DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION
Required Reading
  ================
    The format of all VIRTIS data are described in detail by the EAICD
    document located in the /DOCUMENT directory. VIRTIS team strongly
    recommends reading this documentation before using the data.


  Data Set Overview
  =================
    This data set contains raw data acquired by the Rosetta
    Orbiter VIRTIS spectrometer during the PRELANDING MTP009 of the
    Rosetta mission.


  Processing
  ==========
    The data in this data set are raw, CODMAC Level 2 data. As
    such, the data has been calibrated.


  Data
  ====
    The data are in PDS format. A detailed description of
    the data format is given in the VIRTIS EAICD
    document located in the DOCUMENT directory of this data set.


  Ancillary Data
  ==============
    No ancillary data included in this data set.


  Coordinate System
  =================
      The geometry items SC_SUN_POSITION_VECTOR,
      SC_TARGET_POSITION_VECTOR and SC_TARGET_VELOCITY_VECTOR
      provided in the label of the data product are relative to the
      Earth Mean Equator frame of J2000.

      SUB_SPACECRAFT_LATITUDE, SUB_SPACECRAFT_LONGITUDE are
      given in the PLANETOCENTRIC coordinate system. These parameters
      are corrected by planetary and stellar aberrations.
      Distances are given in km, angles in degrees.


  Software
  ========
    The data can be accessed with the software IDL routines
    provided and documented in the EXTRAS directory.
