April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node1 Planetary Plasma Interactions Node PDS Management Council Presentation April 2, 2009 Raymond Walker Steven Joy Todd King

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node2 Active Mission Archives MESSENGER The project is on schedule for the release of all Mercury 2 Flyby data sets on April 15. Once again, there is a Science issue that will complicate the testing of some of the PDS links for some (calibrated) data sets. EPPS has withdrawn their original EDR data set and submitted a new EDR data set that passed peer review at the end of February. MAG has updated their calibration files and procedure documentation. MASCS is completing the lien resolution on their CDR product and it should be ready for release. All other data sets have been delivered to their PDS Nodes and are be validated for release.

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node3 Active Mission Archives Kaguya (Selene) The Kaguya project has very limited Japanese resources for data archiving Data will not be available until October 2010 Kaguya instrument teams are planning to format data into CDF files similar to those used by other missions (Geotail) PPI is working with NSSDC on a CDF to PDS label tool for Kaguya data sets Requires Kaguya teams to limit the functionality of the CDF products

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node4 Active Mission Archives Cassini Cassini is a mature mission with a well developed data archiving pipeline PPI is working with the MAPS teams to add new data products that are more user friendly All data scheduled for April 1 release have been received by PPI MAG has completed the reprocessing of the calibrated data set and PPI has nearly converted all of the data into its archive format.

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node5 Active Mission Archives New Horizons New Horizons has already completed the archive of the Jupiter flyby data and will not receive any substantial new data until 2015 As a project decision, all New Horizons data are archived in FITS files. FITS is not a format that is used in the planetary plasma science community During the peer review, one of the plasma reviewers from SwRI (Rudy Frahm) wrote code to extract the science data from the FITS files into ASCII tables PPI is contracting with SwRI to have this code adapted to work with all of the New Horizons plasma data to improve the usability of these data sets

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node6 Active Mission Archives Mars Express MEX ASPERA (particle) data from the NPI (neutral image), ELS (electron), and IMA (ion) subsystems are being routinely archived by PPI MEX MARSIS (plasma wave) data are also archived at PPI Both of these archive processes are delayed relative to the receipt of data by PPI because of the restriction that the data be available at ESA prior to the PDS release. The ESA review process is very long

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node7 Active Mission Archives Dawn PPI is assisting with the Dawn archive because the P.I. is located at UCLA and is a PPI CoI. The Dawn archive development is proceeding but is behind schedule. Draft SISs are available for 2 instruments, and 3 rd has been started. Various draft labels have been under review for about a year – additional updates have been requested Local data dictionaries have not yet been submitted to PPI or the SBN

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node8 Future Mission Archives LRO – PPI is ready to begin archiving LRO CRaTER data as soon as the team begins delivering. MSL – PPI is working with the RAD team on the archive design but the interaction has been limited lately Juno – The Juno project delivered a new draft of the Data Management and Archive Plan (DMAP) in March

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node9 Historic Mission Archives Voyager – PPI is still working with the Voyager particles and fields teams to bring the solar wind data into the PDS. There are still some peer review liens that have not been addressed. Mariner 10 – PPI is working with the community to try and locate a high resolution MAG data set for the M3 flyby. PPI received a request from a user, and then a follow-up request from the MESSENGER MAG team.

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node10 Baseline Activities Online Data Reorganization PPI is in the process of reorganizing its online data holdings into single data set volumes The online data at PPI are organized in the form of the original archive volumes (CDs and DVDs) PPI traditionally created correlative volumes that included many related F&P data sets The NSSDC archiving process requires single data set volumes.

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node11 Baseline Activities Data Integrity – Offsite Copies PPI installed a mirror site at its University of Iowa subnode in March PPI tested the NSSDC delivery process in February – additional testing is in progress Once testing is complete, PPI is ready to begin delivering data sets. PPI sent a complete copy of its archive to SDSC last Fall. Data received since last fall has not been sent to SDSC pending a new contract

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node12 Baseline Activities Data Usability PPI is currently working with several projects to build tools that will increase the usability of data New HorizonsFITS to ASCII table converter CassiniMAPS Key Parameter data tools KaguyaCDF to PDS label translator SPASE/VMOPDS to SPASE translator PVOFlatfile to ASCII table converter PPI is considering other tools and will implement them as time and budget allow KaguyaCDF to ASCII table converter DawnPDS to FITS converter

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node13 Interoperability PDS and SPASE The SPASE (Space Physics Archive Search & Extract) group has developed a data model for heliospheric data and implemented its metadata in an XML schema NASA has set up a series of Virtual Observatories to perform essential the same services to the heliophysics community that PDS provides to Planetary – The VxO’s use SPASE metadata. – VxO’s serve distributed data (not data repositories). The is a great deal of overlap between the planetary and heliophysics communities. Comparative magnetospheres studies frequently need data from the Earth and planets. PPI is planning on making PDS data available to the VxO’s by providing SPASE metadata for PPI products. There is no simple translation from PDS catalog files and labels to the SPASE metadata. – Some manual translation will be required.

April 2, 2009PDS Management Council - PPI Node15 Configuration Management Managing Datasets Development of archive datasets is more dynamic. –Delivered incrementally –Made available upon delivery. –Revisions are possible at all phases. New Approach to Managing Dataset Development Use Revision Control System –3-Dimensional (tree+revisions) –Plenty of Off-the-shelf (free) solutions (examples: Subversion or Git) Gives you: –More Control –Less Confusion –Distributed Activity (and multiple Editors) Main Line Archive Develop Version 1 Version 2 Edit Check-out Check-in Delivery Share Check-in Check-out
