Introduction
============
Extensive preparation is necessary to properly understand and interpret
the data in this data set. Very little data set-specific detail is
provided here; this file is only intended as a brief introduction to the
volume structure of the files in this data set. Refer to the Required
Reading section below for further guidance.
Science data content
--------------------
This document is a volume structure overview of the New Horizons (NH)
SWAP PLUTO Calibrated VERSION 1.0 Flight Data Archive.
Boilerplate disclaimer
----------------------
All NH Raw and Calibrated data sets were generated in similar fashion by
an automated pipeline; as such, all of the information that follows is
boilerplate common to all such NH data sets, with pointers to locations
in this data set where more information can be found. Refer to the data
set catalog (CATALOG/DATASET.CAT) and documentation (DOCUMENT/), as well
as the Required Reading referred to below, plus the files pointed to, for
information specific to the instrument and data of this data set.
Required Reading
================
Almost all of the New Horizons instruments have complex modes of
operation and complex, multi-part data products; users who want to
properly understand these data should expect to spend a significant
effort (at least a day per instrument) reading about and researching the
instrument, the data and the PDS product formats. To support that, the
data producer has provided a Required Reading list as a starting point
directing the user to NH data set documentation; refer to the
DOCUMENT/AAA_GENERIC_README/AAARINFO.TXT file for more detail.
Volume Format
=============
This volume has been formatted according to the PDS Standards Reference
3.8 version current as of the publication date of this data set.
File Formats
============
All text documents and other meta information files such as
descriptions, PDS object definitions and detached PDS labels are
stream format files, with a carriage return (ASCII 13) and a line
feed character (ASCII 10) at the end of the record. This allows
the files to be read by most current operating systems.
Data are provided in FITS format with detached PDS labels. See the
DOCUMENT/AAA_GENERIC_README/AAARINFO.TXT file for a PDS label overview
and pointers to suggested FITS & PDS software packages.
Volume Contents
===============
Files on this volume are organized into a set of sub-directories
below the top-level directory. The following table shows the general
structure and content of these directories, but does not exhaustively
list every file in each directory. See the *INFO.TXT files in each
top-level sub-directory for specific information about the files
under that directory.
In this table, directory names are surrounded by forward slashes (/),
and the top-level of the volume is indicated by a single forward slash.
Refer to the data set catalog (CATALOG/DATASET.CAT) and the file
AAA_GENERIC_README/AAARINFO.TXT for a description of DATA/ sub-directory
naming conventions, data filenames and product IDs
