PDS_VERSION_ID = PDS3 RECORD_TYPE = STREAM OBJECT = TEXT PUBLICATION_DATE = 2011-05-10 INTERCHANGE_FORMAT = ASCII NOTE = "ASCII description of contents of CONTOUR Archive" END_OBJECT = TEXT END ======================================================================= NOTE: There were nine volumes of data preserved for the CRISP/Image data set. Little or no documentation was provided describing individual directory structures on those volumes. Consequently, for this version of the data set the original volume structures have been incorporated, unchanged, under the 'volume/' directory - including the volume index, catalog and voldesc.cat files. So, for example, to find the data from the CON_2005 volume, one would look under "volume/con_2005/crisp". The catalog directory at the root level contains versions of the relevant catalog files that have been updated to current PDS (V3.8) standards. Documentation for all CONTOUR data sets is collected into the pseduo- data set CON-CAL-ALL-6-DOC-SET-V1.0, volume ID = CON_0001. - A.Raugh, 2011-05-10, PDS Small Bodies Node, University of Maryland ======================================================================= ***** File AAREADME.TXT This CD-ROM contains contributions by participants in the NASA CONTOUR Mission and assembled for archiving by the CONTOUR Science Data Center (SDC) at Cornell University and the Small Bodies Node of NASA's Planetary Data System (PDS). ************************************************************************ *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* *CAVEAT* Because contact was lost with the CONTOUR spacecraft one month after launch, there is no mission data to be archived for this mission, but ground calibration data and this documentation CD have been archived to document the work completed at that point and to support future comet flyby missions. ************************************************************************ Because such events as in-flight calibration never occurred, the calibration software was not completed. ************************************************************************ Volume Contents =============== VOLUME_ID = CON_10NN ==================== These volumes contain an archive of data from the CONTOUR Forward Imager (CFI) instrument, taken in the Optical Calibration Facility (OCF) at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU/APL). See the catalog files, the documentation volume and the volumes themselves for a more detailed description of the contents of each volume. CONTOUR Mission Documentation CD-ROM Archive Structure for CONTOUR CD AAREADME.TXT (PDS-required introduction to the CD-ROM volume) VOLDESC.CAT (PDS-required volume description of the data only) /CATALOG/ (catalog files' directory) /CATALOG/CATINFO.TXT (list of catalog files) /CATALOG/*.CAT (Mission, spacecraft, instrument, data, references) /DATA/ (Archived data) /INDEX/ (index tables' directory) /INDEX/INDXINFO.TXT (discussion of index tables) The CONTOUR project in consultation with the Small Bodies Node decided that the data would be archived in the PDS format. Consequently, the layout of this volume and the labels for each file conform to PDS guidelines. The components of this data collection, however, are not fully compliant since they have not been through a formal PDS peer review. The data suppliers individually address the validity of the data. We wish to acknowledge the work of each investigator for the CONTOUR mission teams as well as Anne Raugh of Small Bodies Node staff.
