======================================================================
Data Set Overview:
======================================================================
The data from the Rosetta Navigation Camera (NavCam) was extracted by
Bernhard Geiger; the data set was constructed and submitted by Maud
Barthelemy on behalf of the Planetary Science Archives (PSA).
The data have been observed and measured from Rosetta wake up (21 Jan.
2014) to end of April. During this part of the prelanding phase,
only check out and commissioning were happening. The following images
have been taken:
2014-02-23 NAVCAM check-out 6 images (3 images with CAM2)
2014-03-27 HS link test in parallel with SR 4 images
2014-04-30 HS link test in parallel with SR/VR 4 images
It makes a total of 14 images.
No specific pointing has been used (default pointing of spacecraft).
Distances are from 6826466km to 2380426km.
All images in this data set are raw and uncalibrated data taken using
the imaging mode. The data set contains images resolved using both
NavCams onboard the Rosetta S/C and the DATA directory is organised
to reflect this with two sub directories:
- CAM1
- CAM2
For each image, the user can also find the FITS format of the
observation.

Geometry Information - Coordinate System:
======================================================================
The label files include the following geometric variables:
- SC SUN POSITION VECTOR: The vector from the spacecraft to the Sun
in equatorial J2000 inertial frame.
- SC TARGET POSITION VECTOR: The vector from the spacecraft to the
centre of the comet nucleus in equatorial J2000 inertial frame.
- SC TARGET VELOCITY VECTOR: The spacecraft to comet nucleus velocity
vector in in equatorial J2000 inertial frame.
- TARGET CENTER DISTANCE: The distance between the spacecraft and the
comet nucleus centre. (Note that also for checkout and stellar
calibration images the comet nucleus distance is given here.)
- SUB SPACECRAFT LATITUDE and SUB SPACECRAFT LONGITUDE: The latitude
and longitude of the sub-spacecraft point derived from the Flight
Dynamics body-fixed reference frame implicitly specified by the
information provided in the comet attitude file CATT.
- RIGHT ASCENSION and DECLINATION: Right Ascension and Declination of
the 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).
