Overview:
=========
This data set contains calibrated data obtained by the Fluxgate
Magnetometer (RPC-MAG) onboard the ROSETTA spacecraft from the
PRELANDING Phase,for the time interval March 23, 2014 until
November 21, 2014. Included in this dataset are the measurements of
-the Post Hibernation Commissioning: 23.-27.March 2014
-the Near Comet Drift Phase: 17.March - 1.July 2014
-the Far Approach Trajectory: 2.July - 1.August 2014
-the Comet Characterization Phase: 2.August - 2.September 2014
-the Global Mapping, Close Observation Phase: 3.September - 24.October 2014
-the SDL (Separation and Landing) and FSS: 12.-13.November 2014
The magnetometer consists of two sensors, the OB and the IB sensor, mounted
on a spacecraft boom. The instrument provides 3 component magnetic field
vector data measured by both sensors. In this data set the calibrated data
can be found. Magnetic field data are given in nanotesla.

=========================
a) S/C DATA
===========
CODMAC Level/Type Data Type Data Content
3 / CALIBRATED Data table Calibrated TS of OB,IB,HK data
The data can be found in the
./DATA/CALIBRATED/2014/MAR
./DATA/CALIBRATED/2014/APR
./DATA/CALIBRATED/2014/MAY
./DATA/CALIBRATED/2014/JUN
./DATA/CALIBRATED/2014/JUL
./DATA/CALIBRATED/2014/AUG

directory.
This directory has three subdirectories:
LEVEL_A
LEVEL_B
LEVEL_C
The LEVEL_A data (HK,IB,OB) are calibrated data in Instrument coordinates.
The LEVEL_B data (IB,OB) are calibrated data in S/C coordinates.
The LEVEL_C data (IB,OB) are calibrated data in CSEQ coordinates.
b) Supporting files
======================
Supporting files for the Archive user include PDS descriptions,
documents, and searchable indices. These have been organized into
three directories one level below the root: CATALOG,CALIB, DOCUMENT,INDEX.

The ROSETTA project decided that the data would be archived in the
PDS format. Consequently, the layout of this volume and the labels
for each file conform to the PDS/PSA guidelines.
