1. Documentation for the CIRS Re-formatted Data

There are three key documents specific to the re-formatted data set:

  • AAREADME.TXT file. A copy of this file is found in the root directory of every re-formatted volume.

  • TUTORIAL.TXT file. A copy of this file is found in the DOCUMENT directory of every re-formatted volume.

  • DATASET.CAT file. A copy of this file is found in the CATALOG directory of every re-formatted volume.

2. Additional Documentation

  • A number of additional documents are included in the DOCUMENT subdirectory on each volume. Those files are summarized in the DOCINFO.TXT file. A copy of this file is included in the DOCUMENT subdirectory of every re-formatted volume.

  • The CATALOG subdirectory on each volume contains a wealth of information about the CIRS instrument, team and data set. See, in particular:

  • A file, ERRATA.TXT, in the root directory of each volume documents any known anomalies or deviations from PDS standards contained in that volume.

  • Additional descriptions of the instrument can be found at the Cassini CIRS web page maintained at JPL.
