ROSETTA-ORBITER: Calibrated OSIRIS Wide Angle Camera Images from 2004 Commissioning

Radiometric calibrated image data in W/m^2/sr/nm acquired by the OSIRIS Wide Angle Camera on the Rosetta spacecraft. The data covers the COMMISSIONING 1 mission phase from March 5 to June 6, 2004, with a prime objective of instrument calibration. This version V1.0 was reprocessed and delivered by NASA after an October 2018 external peer review.

Use Cases

• Calibrating radiometric models based on the W/m^2/sr/nm calibrated data mentioned in the description
• Analyzing instrument performance during the initial commissioning phase described in the mission
• Studying targets of opportunity observed during the 2004 time frame referenced in the description

Strengths

• Data is radiometrically calibrated to physical units (W/m^2/sr/nm)
• Covers a defined 3-month commissioning period from 2004-03-05 to 2004-06-06
• Reprocessed to version V1.0 following an external peer review in October 2018

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• The description notes no identifiable prime target was observed during this phase
