ROSETTA-ORBITER 67P OSINAC: Georeferenced Comet Images from Rosetta Mission

OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera images of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, acquired from 2016-09-26T06:40:00.000 to 2016-10-01T00:00:00.000. This CODMAC level 5 dataset contains derived products with pixel-precise georeferencing information from the ROSETTA EXTENSION 3 mission phase. The dataset is version V1.0, a corrected version after an October 2018 PSA/PDS external peer review.

Use Cases

• Analyze comet surface morphology based on georeferenced imagery
• Map feature locations on comet 67P based on pixel-precise georeferencing
• Study temporal changes on the comet's surface during the specified mission phase
• Validate or calibrate other remote sensing data from the Rosetta mission

Strengths

• Data covers a specific mission phase from 2016-09-26 to 2016-10-01
• Products are georeferenced with pixel-precise information
• Dataset is version V1.0, corrected after an external peer review in October 2018

Limitations

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