Included in this dataset are the measurements of MTP0031 STP0115 from 2016-06-28T23:25 to 2016-07-05T23:25 MTP0031 STP0116 from 2016-07-05T23:25 to 2016-07-12T23:25 MTP0031 STP0117 from 2016-07-12T23:25 to 2016-07-19T23:25 MTP0031 STP0118 from 2016-07-19T23:25 to 2016-07-26T23:25 MTP0032 STP0119 from 2016-07-26T23:25 to 2016-08-02T23:25 MTP0032 STP0120 from 2016-08-02T23:25 to 2016-08-09T23:25 MTP0033 STP0121 from 2016-08-09T23:25 to 2016-08-15T06:40 MTP0033 STP0122 from 2016-08-15T06:40 to 2016-08-21T06:40 MTP0033 STP0123 from 2016-08-21T06:40 to 2016-08-30T06:40 MTP0033 STP0124 from 2016-08-30T06:40 to 2016-09-02T06:40 MTP0034 STP0125 from 2016-09-02T06:40 to 2016-09-05T06:40 MTP0034 STP0126 from 2016-09-05T06:40 to 2016-09-11T06:40 MTP0034 STP0127 from 2016-09-11T06:40 to 2016-09-20T06:40 MTP0034 STP0128 from 2016-09-20T06:40 to 2016-09-26T06:40 MTP0035 STP0129 from 2016-09-26T06:40 to 2016-09-29T19:30 MTP0035 STP0130 from 2016-09-29T19:30 to 2016-09-30T10:39 The magnetometer consists of two sensors, the OB and the IB sensor, mounted on a spacecraft boom. The instrument provides 3 component magnetic field vector data measured by both sensors. In this data set the calibrated data can be found. Magnetic field data are given in nanotesla. EXTENDED MISSION PHASE 3 (EXT3) RPC-MAG Data Archive ========================= a) S/C DATA =========== CODMAC Level/Type Data Type Data Content 3 / CALIBRATED Data table Calibrated TS of OB,IB,HK data The data can be found in the ./DATA/CALIBRATED/2016/JUN ./DATA/CALIBRATED/2016/JUL ./DATA/CALIBRATED/2016/AUG ./DATA/CALIBRATED/2016/SEP directory. This directory has three subdirectories: LEVEL_A LEVEL_B LEVEL_C The LEVEL_A data (HK,IB,OB) are calibrated data in Instrument coordinates. The LEVEL_B data (IB,OB) are calibrated data in S/C coordinates. The LEVEL_C data (IB,OB) are calibrated data in CSEQ coordinates. b) Supporting files ====================== Supporting files for the Archive user include PDS descriptions, documents, and searchable indices. These have been organized into three directories one level below the root: CATALOG,CALIB, DOCUMENT,INDEX. Structure of the volume ======================== AAREADME.TXT (PDS required introduction to the data set) VOLDESC.CAT (PDS required volume description of the data only) ./CATALOG/CATINFO.TXT (list of catalog files) *.CAT (Mission, spacecraft, instrument, data, references) ../CALIB/CALINFO.TXT (list of calib files) *.LBL (PDS Label for *.ASC files RPCMAG_GND_CALIB_FSDPU_FMIB.ASC Ground Calibration Parameter File for Flight SPARE DPU with FM Inboard sensor RPCMAG_GND_CALIB_FSDPU_FMOB.ASC Ground Calibration Parameter File for Flight SPARE DPU with FM Outboard sensor RPCMAG_PASE_008_CALIB_IB.ASC Inflight calibration Parameter for IB RPCMAG_PHASE_008_CALIB_OB.ASC Inflight calibration Parameter for OB RPCMAG_SC_ALIGN.ASC Matrices for stowed and deployed MAG boom in relation to s/c coordinates RPCMAG_BOOM_ALIGN_CORR_EF1.ASC Boom Orientation correction angles obtained from EF1 Analysis. ./DOCUMENT/DOCINFO.TXT (list of documents) *.PDF (PDF documents) ./INDEX/INDXINFO.TXT (Description of the contents of the index directory) INDEX.LBL (PDS LABEL file for INDEX.TAB) INDEX.TAB (Index of the data set in tabular format) ./DATA/CALIBRATED/*.TAB (MAG data, 3 components presented as ASCII tables) *.LBL (PDS LABELS of the MAG data files) The ROSETTA project 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 the PDS/PSA guidelines.
