ROSETTA-ORBITER: OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera Images from Rendezvous Manoeuvre 1

Uncalibrated image data in DN units acquired by the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera on the Rosetta spacecraft during the RENDEZVOUS MANOEUVRE 1 mission phase. The data covers the period from 2010-09-04 to 2011-07-13, with a prime objective of instrument commissioning and calibration. This version V1.0 is the first release of this dataset, produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Use Cases

• Calibrating camera sensor response based on uncalibrated DN unit data mentioned in the description.
• Analyzing instrument performance during the commissioning phase described as the prime objective.
• Studying 'targets of opportunity' observed during the specified mission phase.
• Developing image processing pipelines for raw spaceborne camera data.

Strengths

• Data covers a defined 10-month mission phase from 2010-09-04 to 2011-07-13.
• Dataset is explicitly from the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera on the Rosetta spacecraft.
• This is the first version (V1.0) of this specific dataset, providing a baseline.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data is uncalibrated, requiring significant preprocessing for scientific analysis.
