Phoenix Project Archive Generation, Validation and Transfer Plan (PDF)
QUOTE The Phoenix Project Level 1 requirements state that Level 0 and Level 1 imaging data shall be archived with PDS within six months of the end of the mission, and all other Level 0 and Level 1 data shall be archived within 12 months of the end of the mission [Applicable Document 3]. The actual delivery schedule will exceed these requirements: the Phoenix Project will make at least two deliveries to the PDS, the first one no later than six months after Sol 30 data are received on Earth, and the second one no later than six months after Sol 90 data are received on Earth. In the event of an extended mission, subsequent data releases will occur for every 90 sols; for example, Sol 180 plus six months, then Sol 270 plus six months, with the final delivery occurring no later than six months after the last data have been received on Earth. Table 5 shows the dates for archive data acquisition and release. QUOTE August 23, 2008 Sol 91: Start of extended mission
November 20, 2008 Sol 180 ~ December 9, 2008 Delivery of data from Sols 1 to 30 to PDS two weeks before first release ~ December 23, 2008 First data release 6 months after sol 30 ~ February 8, 2009 Delivery of data from Sols 31 to 90 to PDS two weeks before second release ~ February 22, 2009 Second data release 6 months after sol 90 TBD Subsequent data releases for every 90 sols through end of mission, with data delivered to PDS two weeks in advance of release date. |
