RO-C-OSINAC-3-PRL-67PCHURYUMOV-M04B

Data Set Overview This data set contains science, calibration and checkout images acquired by the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera system on the Rosetta mission. The images were acquired during the prelanding mission phase covering the period from 20140618 to 20140702. The images are CODMAC level 3. The PRL mission phase covers the the approach to comet 67P/ ChuryumovGerasimenko prior to the landing of Philae Essential Reading The following documents, located on the dataset DOCUMENT folder, are essential for the understanding and interpretation of this data set: OSIRIS_SSR.PDF: Gives an overview of the science goals of the OSIRIS instrument and an overview of the instrument hardware.

The decoded telemetry stream was initially saved as Level 1 PDS images (raw telemetry header and raw image data). These raw Level 1 image files were then passed through a level 1 to level 2 processing pipeline. This pipeline converts the raw telemetry header into calibrated physical values and appends additional information collected from external data sources (SPICE, sequence library ...) Given that the calibration database is considered a single product even if it can be used separately to calibrate images from the NAC and the WAC, it is delivered in its entirety on the NAC and WAC datasets.
