Introduction
============
This data set contains raw narrow band filter images (350-950 nm)
images of Mars acquired by the Deep Impact High Resolution Visible CCD
(HRIV) for the EPOCh project during the second cruise phase of the
EPOXI mission. One set of observations was acquired on 20-21 November
2009 to characterize Mars as an analog for extrasolar planets. The
observing period lasted approximately 24 hours. HRIV images were
acquired once per hour with the filters centered on 350, 750 and
950 nm, whereas the 450-, 550-, 650-, and 850-nm data were taken
every 15 minutes.
Volume Format
=============
This volume has been formatted according to the ISO-9660 level 2
Interchange Standard for directories and file names as described
in Version 3.7 of the PDS Standards Reference.
File Formats
============
All text documents and other meta information files such as
descriptions, PDS object definitions, and detached PDS labels are
stream format files, with a carriage return (ASCII 13) and a line
feed character (ASCII 10) at the end of the record. This allows
the files to be read by various operating systems.
Volume Contents
===============
Files on this volume are organized into a set of subdirectories below
the top-level directory. The following table shows the general
structure and content of these directories but does not exhaustively
list every file in each directory. In the table, directory names
are surrounded by forward slashes (/), and the top-level of the
volume is indicated by a single forward slash. See the *INFO.TXT
files in each top-level sub-directory for specific information about
the files under that directory.
