DATASET OVERVIEW
Description(s)
Abstract
This dataset contains longitude-latitude map data created from images acquired by the LIR instrument of the Venus Climate Orbiter (VCO, also known as PLANET-C and AKATSUKI) spacecraft. This dataset consists of NetCDF file. The longitude-latitude map data are included as Level 3 product in NetCDF. During process of creating longitude-latitude map data, pointing of spacecraft was corrected using limb-fitting technique. Detected limb points and information on fitted ellipse are provided as auxiliary data, Level 3x product in NetCDF. This dataset is produced from calibrated image, geometry information, and SPICE kernel data. Please refer calibrated data collection and geometry collection in the VCO Akatsuki LIR Bundle, and VCO Akatsuki SPICE Kernel Archive Bundle for detailed information on the instrument and acquired data.
