- VOYAGER IMAGE FILE ORGANIZATION
- -------------------------------
-
-
- INTRODUCTION
- ------------
-
- This compact read-only disc (CDROM) contains digital images
- acquired by the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft. The image collection
- contains scenes of the planets Jupiter and Saturn, including
- images of their rings and satellites. The image data are raw;
- no radiometric, geometric, or data clean-up procedures have been
- applied to the images.
-
- Digital images and their associated supplementary information
- are organized as direct-access files with fixed-length records.
- Image files are made up of three components; a label section, an
- image array, and a trailer section. The label section contains ASCII
- keyword entries which describe file attributes, camera conditions,
- target, time of observation, and other parameters. The image array
- contains the image data and supplemental line information. The
- trailer section contains supplemental engineering data.
-
- The disc volume and directory structure conforms to level-1
- of the NISO Standard for Read-Only Optical Media (formerly the
- High-Sierra format).
-
-
- CDROM Volume and Directory Structure
- ------------------------------------------
-
- The volume and directory structure on this CDROM conforms to the
- proposed American National Standard for Information Sciences--Volume
- and File Structure of CDROM for Information Interchange as of August
- 27, 1986. This standard is informally known as the High-Sierra
- format.
-
- This disc conforms to level-1 of the High-Sierra. For computer
- operating systems which support the High-Sierra standard, access to
- the CDROM volume will be simple; all of the operating system
- capabilites which handle files and directories will work on the disc.
- Thus, directory listings and file copy functions can be performed,
- and high-level language input/output system-interface routines can be
- utilized. For computer systems which do not support the High-Sierra
- standard, access to the image files will be more difficult; special
- operating system input/output routines will need to be developed in
- order to access the files. For more information on the NISO
- volume and directory structure, consult the document shown below:
-
- "Proposed American National Standard for Information Sciences--
- Volume and File Structure of CDROM for Information Interchange",
- Document DL 87-47, Developed in coordination with the National
- Information Standards Organization, National Bureau of Standards,
- Administration 101, Library E-106, Gaithersburg, MD 20899
-
-
- IMAGE FILES AND DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
- -----------------------------------
-
- Each digital image and its associated supplementary information
- (image identification, location, and characteristics) are stored in
- a single file. The name of the file is constructed from the clock
- count of Voyager's Flight Data Sub-system (FDS) at the time the image
- was acquired. The FDS count is a unique identification associated
- with an image frame. The general form of an image file name is
- Cxxxxxxx.IMG. The character "C" at the begining of the file name
- designates the xxxxxxx as a clock count. The xxxxxxx is the seven
- digit FDS count associated with the image frame. The .IMG file
- extension specifies the file as an uncompressed image file.
-
-
-
- IMAGE FILE ORGANIZATION
- -----------------------
-
-
- The image files conform to NASA's Planetary Data System (PDS)
- format guidelines for the archival of digital planetary images. PDS
- image files are organized as direct-access files containing
- contiguously positioned fixed-length records. This organization was
- adopted to provide file access for programs written in a wide variety
- of high-level languages. Many high-level input/output routines
- support direct-access with fixed-length records. For computer
- operating systems which support the High-Sierra volume and directory
- standard, programmers will not need to develop their own low-level
- routines for accessing the files. In addition, direct-access files
- allow any part of a file to be accessed directly without the need to
- sequentially pass through a file. PDS image files are a subset of a
- multi-dimensional file structure being defined by PDS.
-
- Direct-access files with fixed-length records have implied
- records; there is no information in the file designating the start
- or end of a record. Rather, the first byte of a record within a
- file starts at a fixed offset byte position from the start of the
- file. To determine the record byte-offset position, the following
- calculation can be made:
-
-
- OFF = (REC-1)*LEN
-
- where: OFF = offset byte of record from start of file
- REC = desired record to access (REC=1,2,3,...805)
- LEN = length of record in bytes
-
-
-
- A PDS image file is divided into three areas: a label area
- found at the start of file, an image area immediately following the
- label area, and a trailer area found at the end of the file. Each
- of these areas is constructed from an integral number of fixed-length
- records. The label area is constructed in an ASCII keyword format
- and contains information defining file characteristics, identifying
- the image frame, defining the state of the camera, and other
- parameters. The image section consists of line records; each
- fixed-length record in this area contains an image scan-line and its
- line engineering data. The trailer section contains detailed
- supplemental engineering data for the image frame.
-
- Voyager image files on this CDROM volume contain records of
- length 836 bytes with 805 records in the file. Records 1 and 2
- contain the label area; records 3 through 802, for a total of 800
- records, contain the image area; and records 803 through 805
- contain the trailer area.
-
-
-
- IMAGE LABEL AREA AND KEYWORD ENTRIES
- ------------------------------------
-
- The first two fixed-length records in an image file contain the
- keyword label area with information about the file organization,
- image identification, image target, and camera instrument
- characteristics at the time the image frame was recorded. The two
- records, when concatenated together, consist of a contiguous string
- of 1672 ASCII characters which can be extracted and typed to a
- terminal or printed in normal fashion. The label area contains a
- series of keyword entries of the form;
-
- parameter_name = value /* comment
-
- The keyword label area conforms to the PDS label standard as of
- January 1, 1987. The PDS label standard was considered preliminary
- at this time, and subject to future changes. For a detailed
- description of the PDS syntactic rules, consult the PDS Labels
- Standards Document. A brief description of the image label syntactic
- rules is given in Appendix 1. An example of the keyword entries for
- a Voyager image file follows; a description of each keyword entry is
- provided in Appendix 2.

-
-
- IMAGE AREA
- -----------
-
- The image area is located in records 3 through 802 for a total
- of 800 records. Each record in this area is a line record consisting
- of an image scan-line and the engineering data for the scan-line.
- The IMAGE_RECORDS keyword in the label defines the total number of
- records in the image area, always 800 for Voyager frames. The
- IMAGE_LINES keyword, also 800, indicates the total number of
- scan-lines in the image array. The IMAGE_RECORDS and the IMAGE_LINES
- keywords are required in PDS labels because there may be multiple
- records per image line for other instruments. The LINE_SAMPLES
- keyword, always 800, indicates the number of samples in a single line
- of the image array. Byte positions 1 through 800 of a record contain
- the image line data. The LINE_SUFFIX_BYTES keyword, always 36,
- specifies the number of bytes of engineering data which follows the
- image line data. The line engineering data is located in byte
- positions 801 through 836. A description of the line engineering
- data can be found in Appendix 3.
-
-
- IMAGE TRAILER AREA
- ------------------
-
- The image trailer area is located in records 803 through 805 for
- a total of 3 records. The 3 records, when concatentated together,
- consist of a contiguous string of 2508 bytes. The data in the
- trailer contains supplemental engineering data which typically will
- not be used by most image processing users. Information in this area
- includes the image histogram, FDS counts at start and end of image
- acquisition, system noise levels, synchronization error counts,
- engineering status, subcommand loads, and other engineering
- information. A description of the image trailer area can be found
- in Appendix 4.
-
-
-
-
- APPENDIX 1
- ----------
-
-
- SYNTACTIC RULES OF KEYWORD ENTRIES IN LABEL AREA
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- The first two fixed-length records of an image file contain the
- label area. These two records, when concatentated together, consist
- of a continuous string of 1672 ASCII characters. The label area
- contains a series of keyword entries containing the names of
- parameters and their associated values. Each keyword entry is
- contained on a line separated from the next keyword entry by an ASCII
- carriage-return control character followed by a line-feed character.
- The keyword entries terminate with a line that contains only the
- keyword END. The remaining label area, after the END keyword entry,
- is padded with ASCII space characters.
-
- A keyword/value entry contains the name of one parameter and the
- value of that parameter. A keyword entry has the general form;
-
- parameter_name = value /* comment
-
- The layout of each keyword entry is essentially free-form;
- blanks and tabs are typically ignored by a parsing routine. A
- keyword parameter name is separated from the keyword value by the
- equal symbol (=). Each keyword entry may optionally be followed by a
- comment that more completely describes the entry. The comment begins
- with a slash character followed by an asterisk character (/*), and
- terminates with the end of the line on which it appears. Comments
- may exist on a line without a keyword entry.
-
- Values associated with a keyword name contain ASCII characters
- which represent integers, real numbers, unitized real numbers,
- literals, time, or character text strings.
-
- INTEGER NUMBERS
- ---------------
-
- An integer value consists of a string of decimal digits preceded
- optionally by a sign (+ or -). Non-decimal based integers are
- expressed according to the ADA language convention: b#nnnnnnn#, where
- 'b' represents the base of the number, and '#' delimits the number
- 'nnnnnnnn'. As an example, the number expressed as 2#111# represents
- the binary number 111 (7 in base 10).
-
-
- REAL NUMBERS
- ------------
-
- A real number has the form: [s]f.d[En]
- where: s = optional sign (+ or -)
- f = one or more decimal digits that specify the integral
- portion of the number.
- d = one or more decimal digits that specify the fraction
- portion of the number.
- n = an optional exponent expressed as a power of 10.
-
- A unitized real number is a real number with a unit of
- measurement associated with the number. The units are enclosed in
- angle brackets (< >). As an example, 1.234 <SECONDS> indicates the
- measurement 1.234 seconds.
-
- TIME
- ----
-
- A special form of a numeric field is the TIME value, the
- following format of date/time representation is used:
- yyyy/mm/dd-hh:mm:ss.fff <units>
- where: yyyy = year
- mm = month
- dd = day of month
- hh = hour
- mm = minute
- ss = seconds
- fff = fraction of seconds
- <units> = unit of time, example <UTC> for universal time
- corrected
-
- LITERAL VALUES
- ---------------
-
- A literal value is typically a member of a set of finite values.
- It is a string constructed from letters (A-Z), decimal digits (0-9),
- and the underscore character (_). The first character must be a
- letter. Optionally, a literal value may be delimited by single-quote
- (') characters. If a literal appears within single-quotes, the
- literal may contain any printable ASCII character. For example, the
- literal value '1:1' is legal as long as the single-quoted format is
- used. By example, the keyword/value entry of INSTRUMENT_FILTER_NAME
- = BLUE contains the literal value BLUE. There are a finite number of
- filter wheel positions of the camera, and the BLUE position is one
- of the positions.
-
- TEXT CHARACTER STRINGS
- -----------------------
-
- Text strings can be any length and can consist of any sequence
- of printable ASCII characters, tabs, blanks, carriage-control,
- or line-feed characters enclosed in double-quote characters. A
- String continues until a double-quote character is encountered.

- SUPPLEMENTAL LINE ENGINEERING DATA
- ----------------------------------
-
- The table shown below describes the information contained in an
- image line record. The supplemental line engineering data is found
- in byte positions 801 through 836 of the record.
-
- All integer values are stored in "least significant byte first"
- order. This is the order for integer values used by VAX and IBM PC
- computer systems. Users of other computer architectures (IBM
- Mainframes, Macintosh, Sun, and Apollo) will need to swap the high
- and low byte positions for 16-bit integer data. For 32-bit integer
- data, swap byte pairs 1 and 4, and 2 and 3. (Example, hex value AA BB
- CC DD becomes DD CC BB AA)
