GEOSCIENCES NODE REPORT PDS Management Council March 25-26, 2010 Ray Arvidson
PDS Geosciences Node Current Work • Current Mission Archiving • LRO • LCROSS • Chandrayaan-1 • MRO • MER • Mars Express • Odyssey • MESSENGER • Developing Missions • MSL • GRAIL • Other Activities • China Interactions • LPSC 2010
LRO • Archives at Geosciences after first release 3/15/10: • LOLA (Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter): 139 GB • LEND (Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector): 7 GB • Diviner (Lunar Radiometer Experiment): 1118 GB • Mini-RF (Synthetic Aperture Radar): 4.2 TB • LOLA Data Node at MIT • Updates are more frequent than 3-month release schedule • Geo makes a copy of the archive at each release date • Access via ODE – see below • Mini-RF – much more data than originally planned • Large data volume caused delay in delivery and validation • Lunar Orbital Data Explorer (ODE) – Geo Node search service • Query and map-based searches of all LRO data sets except CRATER • Includes sub-product-level data searches for LOLA and Diviner • Instrument teams like it, especially Diviner
LRO Metrics, Week 1 • Primary website LRO mission and instrument description pages. • Total Page hits: 2,677 • Unique users: 628 • Hosted LRO data access metrics (FTP & HTTP) • LOLA Data Node Traffic (3/15/2010 - 3/19/2010) • Total File Downloads: 10,191* • *May include some Geo Node data sync activity
Lunar ODE - LRO Query Tools, Week 1 • LOLA RDR Query and Product Generation Tool • 90 Products Generated (ASCII tables, images, shapefiles) • From 34 different users: • Argentina, China, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States • DIVINER RDR Query and Product Generation Tool • 21 Products Generated (ASCII tables, images, shapefiles) • From 8 different users: • Germany and United States
LCROSS and Chandrayaan-1 • LCROSS piggybacked on LRO and impacted the moon on October 9, 2009 • Spacecraft data • 5 visible and IR cameras, 3 visible and NIR spectrometers, 1 total luminance photometer, raw and calibrated data = 17 data sets • Release date is April 9, 2010, impact + 6 months • Archive was delivered to Geo March 18, is in validation • Ground observation data • Several Earth observatories recorded the event. Four were funded by LCROSS to archive data in PDS. • Delivery to PDS was due February 5, 2010, impact + 120 days. • To date, one data delivery is complete, two providers are resolving peer review liens, and the fourth is still getting ready for peer review. Those that are ready will be released when LCROSS spacecraft data are released. • Chandrayaan-1 deliveries • Chan-1 Mini-RF release date is August 29, 2010, one year after last data acquisition.
Mars and Mercury Missions • Four ongoing Mars missions: MRO, Mars Express, MER, Odyssey • Releases are routine; occur every 3 months, except MEx • Still a few Phoenix data products expected, though very late • SSI Camera calibration report finally ITAR-cleared by JPL Export Office • Mars Science Laboratory development (launch Oct. 2011) • Draft Archive Plan is being revised • ICDs have been signed with all teams except… • DAN (IKI and U. Arizona are still negotiating who does what work) • Malin cameras MAHLI, MARDI, MastCam (still negotiating with Project) • MIPL, who will generate most EDR data sets, is writing EDR SIS documents. • Next milestone: Preliminary EDR SIS and sample products due Nov. 2010 • MESSENGER • Release of Mercury Flyby 3 data was March 15, 2010 • Next release: First 2 months of orbital data to be released Sept. 15, 2011
China Interactions • 2007: Memorandum of Understanding of Scientific Cooperation between Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences and Washington University • 2007, 2008, 2009: Workshops, tutorials, and undergraduate short courses conducted at Shandong University • July 2009: Lunar Science Workshop; three W.U. presenters discussing • PDS standards and archives • NASA planetary science community structure • How community influences long-term policy • July 2009: Selected Yinghuo-1 science and data team members attended PDS workshop at Shandong University hosted by Geosciences Node • Shandong students admitted to W.U. for graduate level courses and degrees • Two have returned and are Chang’E team members working on data analysis • Visits to W.U. by members of Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences • Acted as conduit for communications among NASA, LPI, and Chinese colleagues (LPSC 2010) continued on next page…
China Interactions, continued • Ongoing and future efforts • March 18, 2010: Hosted visit from four members of Chinese Consulate in Chicago • Participation in Fourth China-U.S. Roundtable Meeting on Scientific Data Cooperation, March 29-30, 2010 • Tom Stein presenting on WU-China interactions • Participation in Global Lunar Conference, Beijing, May 31-June 3, 2010 • Ray Arvidson is one of three Co-Organizers • ~400 presentations submitted • Papers to be presented by Geosciences Node members Arvidson, Stein, and Jue Wang
