PHOENIX MARS ROBOTIC ARM CAMERA: XYZ Operations Data

The Robotic Arm Camera (RAC) experiment on the Mars Phoenix Lander consists of one instrument component plus command electronics. This data set contains xyz data from the RAC, produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Use Cases

• Analyze robotic arm positioning and movement based on the xyz data mentioned in the description
• Calibrate camera alignment for surface imaging operations based on the instrument component data
• Model the operational environment of the Phoenix Lander based on the command electronics data

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative National Aeronautics and Space Administration
• Last updated on 2026-03-13, indicating recent metadata maintenance

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
