  1. CIRS Data Archiving Status Presentation to the Cassini CIRS Team Meudon, France - April 2004 Conor A Nixon (University of Maryland) Mike Flasar (NASA GSFC) The Cassini CIRS Archive Team

  2. Archiving Overview • Archiving of CIRS data to the PDS (Planetary Data System) is a requirement for Cassini experiments. • PDS will make the data publicly available: effectively limits our period for exclusive use & data validation. • Archiving to PDS has benefits: CIRS US scientists can then apply to NASA for additional funding to analyze CIRS data.

  3. Archiving Requirements • Project requirements are: • Raw level data (decompressed, edited interferograms) • Plus either: • Calibrated spectra, or • Calibration software. • CIRS approach has been to provide 2(a), plus 2(b) if PDS will accept it on an ‘as is’ basis.

  4. Archiving activities since April ‘03 • 5/8/03 - CIRS Sample Data Volume shipped to reviewers. • 5/15/03 - reviewers comments received. • May-December 03 - continued work to respond to reviewers comments. • 12/3/03 - shipped CIRS Peer Review Volume to reviewers. • 1/15/04 - Peer Review Telecon. • January-March 04 - continued discussions with PDS node reps to resolve remaining problems. • 3/23/04 - Meeting with Lyle Huber and Reta Beebe of PDS to discuss CIRS archiving issues.

  5. Peer Review Volume • In the last 9-12 months, the principle CIRS archive activity was to re-work the ‘Sample Archive Volume’ of May 03, responding to reviewers criticisms. • This resulted in a ‘Peer Review Volume’ which was reviewed by a wider group of persons. • Many issues which were thought to have been resolved since the Sample Volume were re-opened, mainly due to conflicting information from PDS on labelling etc.

  6. Main Issues Outstanding as of 04/04 • PDS labels for variable-length data files. • We now have a new template to use for next time around. • What software should be included, especially calibration software. • Vanilla source and executable, yes. • Calibration code: will be included in the ‘extras’ part of the disk. Need to improve documentation.

  7. Issues Outstanding (cont.d) • Most documentation needs further work; was awaiting resolution of remaining formatting issues. • Must include examples of ‘space’ spectra. • Need to include NESR data at different spectral resolutions. • Miscellaneous: e.g. changes to PDS keywords.

  8. Cassini Archiving Delivery Schedule

  9. Revised CIRS Archiving Schedule • June 2004 - produce second edition of Peer Review Volume. • July-August 2004 - resolve any remaining issues with PDS. • September 2004 - begin to archive Jupiter Encounter data (10/00-04/01). • Dates are subject to circumstances beyond our control, e.g. if PDS changes labelling formats.
