The first batch of PJ13 images have been posted to missionjuno.

Note that because the spacecraft antenna was pointed at the Earth during this pass, we are looking way off nadir in these images, which make them deviate from round significantly in non-map-projected form (and look like cashews in the point-perspective form that we use in our processed products.) It would be interesting to know if there's a way to fix this cosmetically without doing a real map projection.

For cosmetic purposes, one could apply something like y' = sin(y) to the drafts (neither using trajectory, nor shape model), with y=0 near the vertical center, and y interpreted as an angle between about -pi/2 and pi/2.

I'm curious to know how the two different processing methods affect your workflow. Your original Brian Swift pipeline version looks about the same as this to my eye, the only difference I see are some uncorrected CCD blemishes (and some global brightness variation, this one is brighter near the terminator.)

Posted by: Gerald May 25 2018, 04:50 PM

Look a little closer to see the residual channel alignment issues. Those are hard to resolve without shape model and trajectory.
This would be more evident http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180525a/JNCE_2018144_13C00027_V01-raw.bmp_reproj_30px_30.456000s_cx805.0_000000_taylorIncEm.bmp_sphC_.html.

Posted by: Sean May 25 2018, 07:18 PM

Brian's pipeline is good for global views at scale since there are alignment offsets which are quite obvious on some images taken closer to the planet.

Here are a few more of Gerald's recent batch...

I was so fascinated of your post-processed versions, Seán, that I almost forgot to process part 2.

Then I fell asleep during upload.
But eventually, here http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180526/, and http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180526a/.

PJ-13, part 3, http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180530/ and http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180530a/.

#065, and #066 show moons, especially Io.

Some of the images are intentionally overexposed, in order to improve visibility of Jupiter's twilight zone.
Also, Io's night side is better visible in the TDI 6 image #066.

Departure sequence is pending.

Here are my versions of image PJ13_27 ("North North North Temperate Belt"). Approximately true color/contrast:

And enhanced versions:




The subspacecraft latitude is ~40 degrees north; areas near near this latitude have been especially photogenic since Juno's arrival. Because the perijove point has been moving farther north as the mission progresses, the image resolution in this area is now somewhat higher than it was earlier in the mission.

For this image, lossless compression (Huffman) was used. The most obvious difference this makes is in the blue channel images which are always significantly darker than the red and green ones. The enhanced images are also free from the spurious 'contouring' that is sometimes visible in low contrast areas in images containing compression artifacts.

An interesting-looking feature is visible not far from the right edge at ~(1325,1120) in the 'central' image. In enhanced versions of PJ13_27 that I saw shortly after the flyby it seemed to me that this might be a big, dark and very long cloud shadow. However, this is an illusion. Closer inspection, especially in images without exaggerated contrast, reveals that this is simply a dark cloud of the same (or similar) color as several nearby features. Also it turns out that the sun is ~40 degrees above the horizon at this location, i.e. no long shadows at this location. Here is an enlarged crop from the true color/contrast image, centered on this feature:



A subset of the image metadata:

IMAGE_TIME = 2018-05-24T05:31:00.639
MISSION_PHASE_NAME = PERIJOVE 13
PRODUCT_ID = JNCE_2018144_13C00027_V01

This time, I've implemented and applied a filter to reduce the number of bright blips caused by energetic particle hits.

I'm going to prepare MP4 scenes and stills for upload.

Here are my versions of image PJ13_44, mainly processed to test a new version of my software. Everything seems to work as planned. Approximately true color/contrast and an enhanced version:

Here are two rather unusual images showing details from PJ13_31. The images show Jupiter's blue sky at the limb. They have been enlarged by a factor of 3 relative to the original data to show the blue sky more clearly. Color/contrast is approximately natural but the brightness of the blue sky at the limb has been increased slightly relative to other parts of the images. These images should be pretty accurate since I couldn't see any errors in the several framelets I checked with limb fits when processing the data (accurate limb fits are a bit difficult in these hi-res images though because the limb is rather fuzzy). In these images the resolution at the limb is ~4 km/pixel (the resolution of the original data at the limb is ~13 km/pixel).

Posted by: Bjorn Jonsson Jun 25 2018, 11:40 PM

Here are my versions of image PJ13_31 (Hot Spot) which is a a very high resolution image. Approximately true color/contrast:

And enhanced versions that have among other things been sharpened with an unsharp mask where the mask radius gets smaller near the horizon:




Due to JunoCam's wide field of view (~58°), the resolution of the high resolution images can vary a lot across the field of view, unlike typical images from narrow angle cameras. The 'image' below shows how the resolution varies in one of the above images. It is computed/rendered at lower resolution than the images above and therefore appears a bit crude. Only the distance is taken into account when computing the resolution (for example the highly oblique viewing angle near the horizon is not included, doing so would result in lower resolution).



And some metadata. Note that the resolution at the nadir point is ~2.5 km/pixel.

IMAGE_TIME = 2018-05-24T05:43:08
MISSION_PHASE_NAME = PERIJOVE 13
PRODUCT_ID = JNCE_2018144_13C00031_V01
SPACECRAFT_ALTITUDE = 3685.5 km
SPACECRAFT_NAME = JUNO

Links to a somewhat preliminary version of partial PJ13 maps:

http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180616/ and
http://junocam.pictures/gerald/uploads/20180614a/.

Especially the maps derived from images taken during departure s/c ops will require a revision.
