ROSETTA-ORBITER 67P OSINAC 2: Uncalibrated Images of Comet 67P

Uncalibrated image data acquired by the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera on the Rosetta spacecraft. The data covers the period from September 23 to October 24, 2014, with the prime target being comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. This version 3.0 dataset was produced by NASA and includes updates to documentation, ancillary files, and image quality handling.

Use Cases

• Analyze comet surface morphology based on uncalibrated image data
• Study temporal changes on comet 67P during the pre-landing mission phase
• Validate image processing algorithms using raw DN unit data
• Assess image quality issues like shutter backtravel and readout problems

Strengths

• Data covers a specific 31-day period from 2014-09-23 to 2014-10-24
• Version 3.0 includes updated documentation and a FAQ section
• Includes ancillary files and a document on bandpass filter

Limitations

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