" 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 |

Then I know what I'll be doing on Christmas day if the archive plan is followed: Testing to see if IMG2PNG handles the Phoenix data properly or if some modifications are required .

Looks like they will be creating an Analyst's Notebook interface for Phoenix like they did for MER. According to the placeholder, Dec 24th will be the release date. Santa's coming early!

Peter Smith mentioned the Dec 24 release date of the first 30 sols of data at AGU yesterday, so they're serious about that. He mentioned a date for the rest of the data but unfortunately I missed it.

I like to view the horizon. The difference in quality between the images in JPG format and radiometrically corrected images in IMG format is awesome. I am delighted that Phoenix landed in the vicinity of such high hills.

Using RAD's from http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/data/phoen.../browse/sol018/ (the phxssi_0xxx isn't, as far as I know, radiometrically calibrated)
Then using IMG2PNG (yes, it works !! ) with img2png *.img -r -s6 Then doing the downsampled R A,B,C - as a colour layer over the full res R1. Result. |

Wow, impressive! I have wanted to have a super-res go at those hills since I first saw them. I hope there is a proper sequence. If not, I hope to cobble one together. Now if the darn data would download (this is going painfully slow - I started at 9:00, and I am not half way).

What is the difference between SSI-1 and SSI-0 (SSI-0 hasn't started coming down yet or I would look myself)?

When I used IMG2PNG the '1' stuff mosaics perfectly - it seems to be a true equivalent of the MER RAD images (as it should - I'm guessing the processing pipeline is essentially the same). The '0' stuff doesn't. Some frames match, some frames don't. I think the numbers reflect the level of processing.
The Level 1 folders also include a lot of extra processed image types - but I like to stick to the orig. RAD frames. Doug |

Thanks. I was trying to figure out just what was in the zero folders. I don't know what the issue is. I have also downloaded a bunch of MER and Cassini stuff today, and it zipped right down. The Phoenix stuff is taking eons.
