Hi,

Does anyone know if/where the INCIDENCE_ANGLE & SUB_SOLAR_AZIMUTH parameters are available for a given MEX/HRSC observation ?

For HiRISE those parameters are usually published in the HiRISE Observation Toolbox or as part of the standard RDR product label file like this for example:

CODE
GROUP = VIEWING_PARAMETERS
    INCIDENCE_ANGLE   = 61.388593 <DEG>
    EMISSION_ANGLE    = 4.314944 <DEG>
    PHASE_ANGLE       = 57.393195 <DEG>
    LOCAL_TIME        = 15.59382 <LOCALDAY/24>
    SUB_SOLAR_AZIMUTH = 156.071516 <DEG>
END_GROUP = VIEWING_PARAMETERS


Maybe I overlooked something, but for MEX/HRSC I could not find those parameters among the parameters listed in one of the ( published standard HRSC/PDS products

Calculating those values oneself using ISIS3 (via the "campt" application) would be an option but then the raw intrument data would be needed which does not seem to be straightforwardly available for HRSC observations ...

Thanks for any help with this,
Bernhard
