END_OBJECT = TEXT END DOCUMENT Directory Contents The DOCUMENT directory contains documentation files for the Mars Express SPICAM archive volume. The files listed below are found in this directory. DOCINFO.TXT - The file you are reading. SA_MEX_ARCH_003_xx.PDF -The SPICAM EAICD in PDF format with xx a version number. The purpose of this file is to provide users of SPICAM data products with a description of the design of the SPICAM data set structure and of the data products. This document also describes the SPICAM data flow from the MARS EXPRESS s/c until the insertion into the PSA for ESA. It includes information on how data were processed, formatted, labeled and uniquely identified. The document discusses general naming schemes for data volumes, data sets, data and label files. Standards used to generate the product are explained. Software that may be used to access the product is given. SA_VEX_ARCH_003_xx.ASC -The SPICAM EAICD in ASCII format SA_MEX_ARCH_003_xx.LBL -PDS detached label that describes SA_MEX_ARCH_003_xx.PDF SPFUM408.PDF - SPICAM Flight User Manual in PDF Format This document presents the Flight User Manual (FUM) for the SPICAM payload instrument on MARS Express. It defines the instrument's mission objectives, physical and functional configurations, and operations modes. It describes the specific operational rules and constraints to operate the instrument during the spacecraft non-ground lifetime. SPFUM408.LBL - PDS detached label that describes SPFUM408.PDF SPICAM_IRDATAFILE_DESC.TXT - ASCII file describing the contents of the data IR files which are delivered in the Spicam IR data set. The user can find all the needed information to read the IR data file. It contains:a) description of the IR data detector, b) definition and header descriptions, c) important notes related to the datas themselves, d) indication of how to read a IR file SPICAM_IRDATAFILE_DESC.LBL - PDS detached label that describes SPICAM_IRDATAFILE_DESC.TXT. SPICAM_IRCALIB_DESC.TXT - ASCII file describing the calibration of the Spicam data which are delivered in the Spicam IR data set. The user can find information about: time exposure, of IR SPICAM data, recorded temperature, meaurement of Dark current, wavelength assignment and other calibration related informations SPICAM_IRCALIB_DESC.LBL - PDS detached label that describes SPICAM_IRCALIB_DESC.TXT. SPICAM_GEOMETRY_DESC.TXT - ASCII file describing the contents of the geometry files which are delivered in the Spicam data product. ( N/A for the Cruise ) The user can find all the needed information to read a geometry file. It includes: a) an overview of the delivered geometry files related to UV or IR.,b) header contents , c) several geometrical definitions (i.e: LOS, MNP ..) and d) brief computation background. SPICAM_GEOMETRY_DESC.LBL - PDS detached label that describes SPICAM_GEOMETRY_DESC.TXT. MEX_ORIENTATION_DESC.TXT - ASCII file informing on the usage of the spacecraft orientation on Mars Express. MEX_ORIENTATION_DESC.LBL - PDS detached label that describes MEX_ORIENTATION_DESC.TXT SPICAM_POINTING_014.TXT - This document describes the geometry computation. It gives some useful definitions for computations Due to the great number of operation modes and instrument configurations, the document gives a full description for each case of observation. It explains what must be computed. Furthermore , this file contains instrument values as such as : pointing, field of views, positions , ... It summarizes the preparation of observations and gives a quick note of the computation itself. SPICAM_POINTING_014.LBL - PDS detached label that describes SPICAM_POINTING_014.TXT DATA_QUALITY_DESC.TXT - ASCII file describing the data quality which is associated with a particular data_quality_id value. Each data file label includes a quality flag string in the DATA_QUALITY_ID keyword. It is an eight characters flag. This file shows the definition and description DATA_QUALITY_DESC.LBL -PDS detached label that describes DATA_QUALITY_DESC.TXT
