I wrote a shell script that allows you to download all images from a given sol.:
http://paranoid.dechengst.nl/files/MSLget.sh There are two rm commands in the script to clean up the tempdir. If you're afraid my script screws up your system replace them with rm -i commands. If you want any features added please let me know and I'll see what I can do. EDIT1: Added leading zeros in the directory names for easy sorting after a request for it on IRC. EDIT2: I see a lot of people downloading the script. To be clear: This is a script for *NIX systems and won't run on a standard Windows box. To get it running under Windows you need to install a *NIX environment like Cygwin. Your other option would be to install something like Ubuntu in VirtualBox. EDIT3: As RoverDriver pointed out you need to have wget on your system to use this script. The script now handles this gracefully. -------------------- PDP, VAX and Alpha fanatic ; HP-Compaq is the Satan! ; Let us pray daily while facing Maynard! ; Life starts at 150 km/h ;

Let's remember that the mission is not obliged to give us access to these image at all. At least until the PDS release.
It's early days in the mission and the priority is the mission. All of the so-called "issues" with getting quick and easy access to the images will sort itself out in due course. Remember that we are privileged to get access to this data, but they are not obligated to provide it. The fact that they do provide it at all is highly appreciated and while frustrating to some that it's not quicker and easier, we need to remember that their people and resources are not unlimited. Give them time. UMSF is a great place to provide useful suggestions and ways to access the imagery. It is of no value to complain about it. |
