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' . |

Wow, this is quite an undertaking you're doing there, Emily! You sure your server is good for all this data?
One parameter that might be nice to add is which way north is (IIRC can be approximated from from the so-called TWIST_ANGLE). I'd use IMAGE_MID_TIME as I think it's more reliable than START_TIME. What do you mean by WAC calibration not working? 128 pixel thumbs seem about right, anything smaller might make more distant observations look bad. -------------------- |
