CONTOUR CRISP: Ground Calibration Spectral Counts from 2002

2002 raw spectral counts from the CONTOUR Remote Imaging Spectrograph (CRISP) instrument during ground calibration at the JHU/APL Optical Calibration Facility. The data was produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and represents instrument-level measurements. The dataset was last updated on the platform in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Calibrating spectrograph instrument response based on raw ground counts.
• Validating optical performance models for spacecraft instruments using calibration facility data.
• Analyzing spectral signal characteristics from a specific instrument mentioned in the description.

Strengths

• Data originates from a controlled calibration facility (JHU/APL OCF), suggesting a known measurement environment.
• Specific instrument (CONTOUR CRISP) and collection year (2002) are clearly identified.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
