1. Introduction
This volume contains Level 1, data products for CRaTER measurements made
during the LRO mission. The products contains measured deposited energy
and estimated LET (silicon) for each charged particle (or photon)
interaction in the six silicon detectors that comprise CRaTER's
charged-particle telescope as well as instrument configuration and oper
operating parameters. Ancillary data files produced by the LRO Mission
Operations Center for computing the spacecraft's location and orientation
are included with the data products. The volume also contains product
documentation and copies of the 'pipeline process' software used to create
the CRaTER data products.
For more information about the volume directory structure, refer to the
CRaTER Standard Product Data Record and Archive Volume Software Interface
Specification (32-01211). A copy of thise document is located on this
volume as file VOLSIS.PDF in the DOCUMENT directory.
2. Disk Format
Not applicable--these products are being delivered to PDS electronically.
3. File Formats
Science Data File Format
Level 1 (CRAT_L1_*.TAB) data files are ASCII tables whose comma-delimited
format is intended for ease of reading by commercial database and
spreadsheet software. Non-numeric fields are enclosed in double quotes and
all fields are described by the CRAT_L1_*.FMT file in the LABEL directory.
Document File Format
Document files with the .TXT suffix exist in the root, CALIB, CATALOG,
DOCUMENT, INDEX, and SOFTWARE directories and their subdirectories.
These files are ASCII files with attached PDS labels and with line lengths
that do not exceed 80 characters. Document files have variable-length lines
with an end-of-line designator consisting of a carriage-return character
followed by a linefeed character. This allows the files to be read by the
MacOS, Microsoft Windows, and Unix operating systems.
Tabular File Format
Tabular files (INDEX.TAB, GAPS_*.TAB) exist in the DATA, DOCUMENT, and
INDEX directories. These are ASCII files formatted for direct reading into
many database management systems on various computers. Commas separate all
fields, and character fields are enclosed in double quotation marks (").
Character fields are left justified and padded on the right with spaces to
keep quotation marks in the same columns of successive records. Number
fields are right justified and padded with spaces on the left to keep
fixed-width fields. The records are of fixed length, and the last two
bytes of each record contain the ASCII carriage-return and line-feed
character. This allows a table to be treated as a fixed length record file
on computers that support this file type and as a text file with embedded
line delimiters on those that don't.
Tabular files are described by PDS label files whose file names are the
same as the corresponding tabular file but with the extension ".LBL".
PDS Label Format
All data and tabular files in the CRaTER Archive Collection have
associated PDS labels. A PDS label, whether attached to or detached from
its associated file, provides descriptive information about the content and
format of the associated file. The PDS label is an object-oriented
structure consisting of sets of "keyword = value" declarations. The object
to which the label refer (e.g. IMAGE, TABLE, etc.) denotes the form:
^object = location
in which the caret character (^, also called a pointer in this context)
indicates where to find the object. In an attached label, the location is
an integer representing the starting record number of the object (the first
record in the file is record 1). In a detached label, the location denotes
the name of the file containing the object, along with the starting record
or byte number, if there is more than one object in the file.
For example:
^HEADER = ("F01.IMG",1)
^IMAGE = ("F01.IMG",1025 ❮BYTES❯)
indicates that the IMAGE object begins at byte 1025 of the file F01.IMG, in
the same directory as the detached label file. Below is a list of the
possible formats for the ^object definition.
^object = n
^object = n❮BYTES❯
^object = "filename.ext"
^object = ("filename.ext",n)
^object = ("[dirlist]filename.ext",n)
^object = ("filename.ext",n❮BYTES❯)
^object = ("[dirlist]filename.ext",n❮BYTES❯)
where:
n is the starting record or byte number of the object, counting from
the beginning of the file (record 1, byte 1);
❮BYTES❯ indicates that the number given is in units of bytes;
filename is a maximum 27-alphanumeric upper-case character file name,
ext is the 3 upper-case character file extension;
dirlist is an upper-case, period-delimited path-list of parent
directories, beginning at the directory level below the archive volume
root directory, that specifies the object file directory (used only
when the object is not in the same directory as the label file).
Detached label files have variable length lines with an end-of-line
designator consisting of a carriage-return character followed by a line-
feed character. This allows the files to be read by the MacOS, Microsoft
Windows, and Unix operating Systems.
Catalog File Format
Catalog files (suffix.CAT) exist in the root and CATALOG directories. They
are formatted in an object-oriented structure consisting of sets of
"keyword = value" declarations.
4. Volume Contents
The files in this volume are organized in one top-level directory with
several subdirectories. The following outline shows the structure and
content of these directories. In the table, directory names are enclosed
in square brackets ([]), upper-case letters indicate actual directory or
file names, and lower-case letters indicate the general form of a set
of directory or file names.
