VGISS_5,7,8xxx Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune

Update: November 8, 2013
Responses to Reviewers' Comments
The data set has gone through substantial revisions since the peer review.
The major changes are as follows:
- A review of the process revealed that our copy of input file
“VGRSCF.DAT” contained the exact same scaling factors for
Neptune as for Uranus, so that all I/Fs from the Neptune
encounter were small by a factor of ~ 2.5. We have repaired
the error in VGRSCF.DAT and have re-calibrated the entire
Neptune data set. We have also run the quality tests and the
end again to ensure everything is OK. Checks of the image in
question confirm that I/Fs for Uranus and Neptune are now
similar. The correction is documented in PROCESSING.TXT, and
we have also archived the corrected version of VGRSCF.DAT in
the CALIB subdirectory on the last Neptune volume.
- It was found that many of the Uranus and Neptune images had
inadvertently been calibrated using ADESPIKE instead of
DESPIKE. he latter is newer and produces superior results.
Also, some Uranus and Neptune images were not processed using
VGRFILLIN, which resulted in horizontal stripes near the edges
of some images. All Uranus and Neptune images were re-
processed using VGRFILLIN and DESPIKE. Note that the Neptune
images were also calibrated using the corrected version of
VGRSCF.DAT, as discussed above. All quality tests were then
repeated. Side-by-side comparisons of the new and old versions
of selected images confirm that the new versions are
distinctly cleaner and that the Neptune scale factors are
correct.
- The labels for the raw files did not include the
(undocumented) ENGINEERING_TABLE object, which occupies the
second and third record of each file. The labels have been
corrected.
- We transcribed the tables from Danielson et al. 1981 and
added them to the DOCUMENT/REPORTS subdirectory. We also
standardized the DOCUMENT directory across all volumes except
for the encounter-specific files PROCESSING.TXT and
TUTORIAL.TXT. This is explained in DOCINFO.TXT.
- PRODUCT_CREATION_TIMES were updated to reflect the new processing.
- Numerous documentation files were updated, including TUTORTIAL.TXT,
PROCESSING.TXT, AAREADME.TXT, DATASET.CAT, INDEX.TAB, ERRATA.TXT,
and most of the PDS .LBL files.
A few things are not part of this release:
- We have not yet augmented the geometric information about the images.
This is the subject of ongoing work at the Rings Node, along with similar work
for the Cassini mission. This work is incomplete at this time but will be
included in a future update to the data sets.
- We have not yet corrected targets currently identified as "UNK_SAT". These
will be corrected along with the augmented geometry information.
- We have not yet documented a few very old file formats that are
archived primarily to support current users of VICAR. Charlie Avis has
agreed to provide some of this information, and we will include it in an
update.
