I have noticed that the January 1, 2007 Cassini PDS release is already available, see http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/data/cassi...assini_orbiter/
I haven't downloaded all of the imaging data and I'm just beginning to digest what I already have but there are some beautiful images of Enceladus' plumes and satellite mutual events, images of the G and D rings and interesting images of Saturn's nightside and fairly good Iapetus images. Radar and VIMS is also available. All in all a nice 'Christmas gift' . |

I now have the information on the just released Cassini images ready for getting added to the Access image database discussed earlier in this thread. That database includes everything up to and including the April 1, 2007 release. The files below add the images released on July 1, 2007.
Transferring the entire database file is an overkill so I prepared two Excel (!) files that can be imported into the database. The files are fairly small (less than 3 MB each). Emily has hosted them on the same server as the database: http://filicio.us/tpss3/files/23158/cassin...es_index_24.zip http://filicio.us/tpss3/files/23159/cassin...es_index_25.zip In Access, do File -> Get External Data -> Import What follows should be obvious, accept the defaults and when asked "Where would you like to store your data?" choose the table "coiss" in the list that appears next to "In an Existing Table:". Thanks to Emily for hosting this together with the database. |

I'm resurrecting this old thread to announce a new version of the database discussed earlier in the thread. All of the errors I mentioned there have been fixed and the database includes information for all of the ISS images released to the PDS so far (almost 200,000 images).
As earlier Emily has provided hosting for this big file (it's about 85 MB zipped). Further information is available here: http://planetary.org/explore/topics/cassin...s_database.html |
