Introduction This archive contains calibrated data of the RPC-MIP instrument on ROSETTA. The data were acquired during the PRL1 mission phase (Prelanding part 2). It also contains documentation which describes the RPC-MIP experiment. The RPC-MIP data archived in this data set are the exact products as described in the RPC-MIP Experiment to Archive Interface Document(EAICD), supporting documentation and label files, conform to the Planetary Data System (PDS) Standards, Version 3.6. Additional information about the RPC-MIP experiment can be found in documents on ESA's file servers and from the PDS Small bodies Node. 2. Volume format This section is not applicable since the data are stored only electronically. 3. File Formats Tabular files are formatted so that they may be read directly into many database management systems on various computers. All fields are separated by blancks, and character fields are enclosed in double quotation marks ("). Character fields are left justified, and numeric fields are right justified. The last two bytes of each record contain the ASCII carriage return and line feed characters. PDS labels are object-oriented. The object to which the label refers (e.g., IMAGE, TABLE, etc.) is denoted by a statement of the form: ^object = location in which the character (^, also called a pointer in this context) indicates that the object starts at the given location. In a detached label, the location denotes the name of the file containing the object, along with the starting record or byte number. For example: ^TABLE = "MY_TABLE.TAB" indicates that the TABLE object points to the file MY_TABLE.TAB . Pointers to data objects are always required to be located in the same directory as the label file, so the file MY_TABLE.TAB in this example is located in the same directory as the detached label file named MY_TABLE.LBL. Other type of pointer statements is also found in this dataset. ^ STRUCTURE : it is a pointer to the format file (.FMT) describing the data file and located in the LABEL directory 4. Dataset Contents The files in this dataset are organized in one toplevel directory with several subdirectories. In the table, directory names are enclosed in square brackets ([]) FILE CONTENTS Top-level directory [RO-C-RPCMIP-3-PRL2-V2.0] | |- AAREADME.TXT The file you are reading. | |- VOLDESC.CAT A description of the contents of this | volume in a PDS format readable by both | human and computers. | |- [BROWSE] A directory containing plots (PNG files) that | are one to one mapping of the corresponding | edited and calibrated SC and HK data (TAB and | CSV files) in the DATA directory. | |- [EXTRAS] A directory containing software to convert | PDS data to csv (comma-separated value) format | |- [CATALOG] A directory containing files that provide | a top-level understanding of the mission, | spacecraft, instruments, and data sets. | | |- [DATA] A directory containing RPC-MIP data files | | and detached labels files organized by | | years and months | | | | - [CALIBRATED] | | | | - [] | | | | - [] | |- [DOCUMENT] A directory containing documentation to | help the user understand and use the | archive data. | |- [INDEX] A directory containing index files relating | to this dataset. | |- [LABEL] Directory containing the PDS format files (.FMT). 5.Errata and Disclaimer N/A 6.
