" 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"
http://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/missions/phoenix/index.htm Due, I would have thought, in the not too distant future. We are 161 days after Sol 30, which was June 25th. So according to the PHX archive plan - it'll be Chrismas day Doug |

I'm slowly starting to get a handle on the calibrated color for Phoenix from the PDS. The science RDR versions of the RAD images look fantastic!
I've got a gallery up with my progress so far: Phoenix Calibrated Color It currently has the SSI right-eye color images for the following filter combos (in order of preference): 1ABC2, 1ABC, ABC, 1BC, 1B2 and 8B2. The end of the filenames list the filters used. The three- and four-filter sets use color formulas fit to the expected output color based on a five-filter training set. Each frame is coregistered to correct for the shift that sometimes occurred between filters. There is not any scene-based chromatic adaptation being used, so the hues are "as they are". The brightness is held constant throughout all the images. Now for the caveats! I haven't yet put in pan sharpening to make good use of the mixed high-res low-res images, so the bulk of the panorama frames are a bit fuzzy at full zoom. Also, a few of the images have some visible artifacts from saturation (sol 16, and parts of the deck on sol 21 and 30). As an example image, here's a look at Dodo-Goldilocks on sol 18: |
