Cassini Magnetometer Calibrated Bundle - Errata This file describes any known errors or deficiencies in the data collections within this bundle. These data were originally archived in the folliwng PDS Data Sets: CO-E/SW/J/S-MAG-3-RDR-CALIB-SHM-V2.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519600) CO-E/SW/J/S-MAG-3-RDR-FULL-RES-V2.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1521151) CO-E/SW/J/S-MAG-4-SUMM-1MINAVG-V2.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519602) CO-E/SW/J/S-MAG-4-SUMM-1SECAVG-V2.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519603) These data sets were originally archived under PDS3 in the COMAG_3001 COMAG_4001 and COMAG_4002 volumes. During the migration from PDS3 to PDS4 the following issues were found and corrected in the PDS4 metadata. Cassini Scalar Helium MAG Calibrated Housekeeping Data Collection (urn:nasa:pds:cassini-mag-cal:data-shm-hkrate) =============================================================================================== 'Nan' values, repeated records, and records of different lengths are present in this collection. A corrected ASCII version is included in urn:nasa:pds:cassini-mag-cal:data-shm-hkrate-asc. Cassini Scalar Helium MAG Calibrated Science Data Collection (urn:nasa:pds:cassini-mag-cal:data-shm-scirate) =============================================================================================== Repeated records and records of different lengths are present in this collection. A corrected ASCII version is included in urn:nasa:pds:cassini-mag-cal:data-shm-scirate-asc. Cassini MAG Calibrated 1 Min. Avg. Data in RTN Coords. Collection (urn:nasa:pds:cassini-mag-calibrated:data-1min-rtn) =============================================================================================== This collection contained records of different lengths. The precision was also adjusted. Cassini MAG Calibrated Full Res. Data Collections =============================================================================================== These data contain persistent noise signals at 0.2, 8, 16 Hz, and associated harmonics. This noise was not observed during ground testing of the instruments and is anticipated to be interference arising from the spacecraft. Removal of these signals is at the user's discretion. Cassini MAG Calibrated Full Res. Data Collections Cassini MAG Calibrated 1 Min. Avg. Data Collections Cassini MAG Calibrated 1 Sec. Avg. Data Collections =============================================================================================== There are errors in some of the Cassini MAG data in this bundle due to incorrect handling of leapseconds. The errors are as follows: Time Interval Error ------------------------------------------------- ----- 2012-07-01 00:00:00.000 - 2015-07-01 00:00:00.000 +1 s 2015-07-01 00:00:00.000 - 2017-01-01 00:00:00.000 +2 s 2017-01-01 00:00:00.000 - End of Mission +3 s The time tags can be corrected by subtracting the error from current time values. This error was created during the conversion of the data from binary to ASCII performed at the PDS/PPI node. It does not exist in the original binary data files available from the Cassini MAG team. The PPI node will correct this error in it's data holdings at a future date. Data Timing Errors Some PDS3 versions of these data were determined to contain timing errors, including both backwards and repeated times. Any timing errors that may be present in a data file are noted in the PDS label file that accompanies it. A full list of all files, and intervals containing timing errors is provided in the FGM_FULL_TIMING_ERRS.CSV. Note that some of the instances reported as repeated times are actually time steps of >1 msec. These are well below the Cassini MAG instrument's highest data rate of 30 Hz. A more detailed description of the timing errors is included in the data collection descriptions text files. =============================================================================================== Users are encouraged to provide comments back to the PPI Node of the PDS if errors or omissions are found either in data or in documentation.
