Anyone got a good bearing angle for the lander from the pan position at Clovis - to within a couple of degrees?

Hmm - anyone know how to find out the actual pointing direction of Pancam from a pds header?


/* DERIVED GEOMETRY DATA ELEMENTS: ROVER FRAME */

GROUP = ROVER_DERIVED_GEOMETRY_PARMS
INSTRUMENT_AZIMUTH = -61.9729 <deg>
INSTRUMENT_ELEVATION = -16.6434 <deg>
REFERENCE_COORD_SYSTEM_INDEX = (85, 0, 323, 552, 272)
REFERENCE_COORD_SYSTEM_NAME = ROVER_FRAME
END_GROUP = ROVER_DERIVED_GEOMETRY_PARMS

/* DERIVED GEOMETRY DATA ELEMENTS: SITE FRAME */

GROUP = SITE_DERIVED_GEOMETRY_PARMS
INSTRUMENT_AZIMUTH = -67.1847 <deg>
INSTRUMENT_ELEVATION = 5.26536 <deg>
REFERENCE_COORD_SYSTEM_INDEX = 85
REFERENCE_COORD_SYSTEM_NAME = SITE_FRAME
SOLAR_AZIMUTH = 17.0203 <deg>
SOLAR_ELEVATION = -49.2353 <deg>

I'm asuming -67 is 67 deg left of looking straight forward - but is there anywhere that shows the pointing of the rover itself allowing to calculate a bearing for a pancam image?
