ROSETTA-ORBITER OSINAC: Calibrated Narrow-Angle Camera Images from Cruise Phase 5

NASA's Rosetta spacecraft OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera captured radiometrically calibrated and geometrically corrected image data from 2009-12-14 to 2010-05 16. The dataset, at CODMAC level 4, contains images in units of W/m^2/sr/nm, with the prime objective being instrument commissioning and calibration. This version V1.0 is the first release of this dataset.

Use Cases

• Calibrate remote sensing instruments based on the radiometric calibration data
• Analyze geometric distortion in space-based cameras based on the corrected image data
• Study opportunistic celestial targets observed during the cruise phase
• Validate image processing pipelines for CODMAC level 4 data

Strengths

• Data is radiometrically calibrated and geometrically distortion corrected
• Covers a defined time range from 2009-12-14 to 2010-05-16
• Produced by NASA, a recognized space agency

Limitations

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