ROSETTA-ORBITER OSINAC: Solar-Stray-Light Corrected Images of Comet 67P

Solar stray light corrected and radiometric calibrated image data acquired by the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera on the Rosetta spacecraft. The dataset covers observations of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from January 12 to February 9, 2016. This version V1.0 is the first version of this dataset, corrected after an external peer review in October 2018.

Use Cases

• Analyze comet surface morphology based on calibrated image data
• Study solar stray light effects on spaceborne camera observations
• Perform radiometric analysis of comet reflectance
• Validate geometric correction models for spacecraft imagery

Strengths

• Data is radiometric calibrated and geometric distortion corrected
• Solar stray light correction has been applied
• Dataset covers a specific mission phase from 2016-01-12 to 2016-02-09

Limitations

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