New Horizons RALPH/MVIC Liens - December 2008
=============================================

General Notes
=============
o In the MET2UTC file in the document directory, please zero-pad METs
  that would begin with zeroes.
o Please add the MET equivalent of the UTC listed in the Sequence ID
  table in the dataset.cat descriptions.
o Add a note to the dataset.cat CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE in the processed 
  data indicating why there might sometimes be raw files that did not
  produce processed files.
o In ref.cat, move the year ("2006") to the end of the text in the
  REFERENCE_DESC for OTTMANETAL2006 (AGU style required for citations).
o Use the EARTH and JUPITER target catalog files received from PDS/EN -
  do NOT submit the target files originally submitted with the data!!!
o Edit the AAREADME.TXT file so that the directory layout described 
  actually matches the layout in the data set.

Post-Launch Raw & Processed

1 The "*_qe_times_filter.tab" files have a very coarse sampling rate, 
  and when plotted don't seem to agree with the information in other
  calibration tables, especially just outside the bandpass.  They 
  should be replaced by something which ultimately agrees with the
  rest of the calibration tables.

2 Are these QE curves really the best available data? They don't appear
  to contain enough real information to be useful. Please supply useful
  data.

3 Are the filter tables correct?

4 If reasonable, combine the filter, QE and product tables into a single
  table for each array.

5 The methane filter table seems to be listed in descending wavelength
  instead of ascending wavelength as in the other files.  Check if this
  is just a sorting problem, and correct accordingly.

  CLARIFICATION: The reviewers questioned whether this was indicative
  of a mnore substantive problem in the filter transmission data. 
  Simply reversing the order is not sufficient - we need an explanation
  for how the data were reversed in the first place.

6 Label descriptions for "transmittance" columns do not accurately 
  describe whether the transmittance is expressed as a percentage or
  fraction.  This needs to be stated explicitly.

7 The abbreviations "mfr", "mcl" and "mp" need to be defined somewhere
  prominent - "calinfo.txt" would be a good place.  Also consider
  adding acronym definitions to the data set catalog file description
  following the instrument observation designators table.

8 Consider changing the TARGET_NAME for all references to "2002 JF56"
  to "(132524) APL".  Also add the final name to the target list in 
  the data set catalog file. (This will have to be done by SBN after
  delivery).

9 Add "2002 JF56" to the sequence ID table in the dataset.cat file of 
  the post-launch data.

Jupiter Raw & Processed

1 Liens # 1-7 from Post-Launch and Check-out data apply here as well.

2 Target catalog files need to be either restored or replaced with 
  useful information (SBN will have to do this).

3 If possible, add a table of science objectives for imaging sequences
  to the documentation.

4 If possible, add a BROWSE/ directory with thumbnails that link back
  to the full data files (as was done for Deep Impact).

5 Consider moving the TARGET_NAME in the index table closer to the 
  left edge of the table.  Alternately, supply a user index of selected
  columns in the INDEX/ directory.  Note that the dataset.html page
  should also direct users to this index.
