ROSETTA-ORBITER: OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera Images of Asteroid Lutetia

Radiometric calibrated and geometric distortion corrected image data acquired by the OSIRIS Narrow Angle Camera on the Rosetta spacecraft. The dataset covers the LUTETIA FLY-BY mission phase from 2010-05-17 to 2010-09-03, with the prime target being asteroid 21 Lutetia. This version V1.0 is the first version of this dataset.

Use Cases

• Analyze asteroid surface reflectance based on radiometric calibrated data
• Study geometric features of asteroid 21 Lutetia based on corrected image data
• Map asteroid morphology based on narrow-angle camera imagery
• Validate spacecraft instrument performance during the fly-by mission phase

Strengths

• Data is radiometric calibrated and geometric distortion corrected
• Specific temporal coverage from 2010-05-17 to 2010-09-03
• Target asteroid 21 Lutetia is clearly identified

Limitations

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