2. Updates Found case sensitive issue
if dd.channel eq 'fuv' then instrument = 'CASSINI_UVIS_FUV’
For some dd.channel gives FUV and for others dd.channel gives fuv
Fix this by inserting “strlowcase” like so
if strlowcase(dd.channel) eq 'fuv' then instrument = 'CASSINI_UVIS_FUV’

3. Cube Generator Tutorial
Cube Generator Fundamentals
Download cube generator
Download NAIF SPICE package
Download UVIS raw data files
Download appropriate spice kernels
Run cube generator

4. Download cube generator
Cube generator is software that generates calibrated UVIS data and accompanying geometrical variables
Located on the UVIS team site
contact Laura Bloom about account username and password
Cube generator executable is hopefully on the way so entire cube generator software will not be required.

5. Download NAIF SPICE package
SPICE is a space geometry information system that assists scientists in interpreting observations from space-base instruments.
Toolkits are available for C, Fortran, IDL, and MATLAB.

6. Download UVIS raw data files
DAPS3

PDS

7. Download appropriate spice kernels
These are a collection of kernels to be used with SPICE routines that provide geometrical information at some specific time during an observation
(contact JPL for account username and password)

8. Run Cube Generator First must register the DLM
DLM (Dynamically Linked Module) provides interface between environment and SPICE
Cannot be called within another routine
Example

9. Loading Spice Kernels
Can load a single kernel or load a batch of kernels all at the same time
If loading batch of kernels then create text file with path and names
Make sure text file resides somewhere within the path to the spice kernels
Only provide path for successive directories after where the text file resides
Example

10. Loading data files
Can create a data cube from a single data file or from a batch of data files
If loading batch of data files then create text file with path and names
Make sure text file resides somewhere within the path to the data files
Only provide path for successive directories after where the text file resides
Example
