Project description
PYDAR
Python Package to access and manipulate CASSINI RADAR images in one place
- Find relevant flyby observation numbers and IDs for a specific region, feature, or location
- Retrieve flyby observation data (.FMT, .TAB, .LBL, .IMG) from SBDR and BIDR by default
- Access AAREADME and .LBL readme information
- Display PDS image retrieved for flyby observation
NOTE: This is Beta quality software that is being actively developed, use at your own risk. This project is not supported or endorsed by either JPL or NASA. The code is provided “as is”, use at your own risk.
Overview
For information on instrument specifics and acronyms refer to the Cassini Radar User Guide
The Cassini Radar data can be found at the PDS Imaging Node. The directory is organized by PDS standards. The file format are defined in the Small Body Node. The radar echo is stored originally as floating points in LBDR files. The SAR processors turns the LBDR files to BIDR image. The BIDR data is organized as follows:
Cassini RADAR Information (CORADR_xxxx_Vxx) where xxxx is the radar data take number and Vxx is the data version number

Download Time
Download time varies depending on the number and size of files of interest. On average, most single feature downloads take between 2-5 minutes to download.
Cross-Reference Table for Observations and Flybys
The Titan flybys ID is not used in the naming convention for the CORADR filenames. The Titan flyby information is contained in the BIDR filenames and in the VOLDESC.CAT under 'Description' and can be found using the following cross-reference table: cassini_flyby.csv
Flyby ID Cross Reference Table
Prime Mission and Extended Mission
Column 1: Titan flyby id
Column 2: Radar Data Take Number
Column 3: Sequence number
Column 4: Orbit Number/ID

To convert between a Titan Flyby ID and an observation number: pydar.convertFlybyIDToObservationNumber(flyby_id)
Observation Information as filename
The data filename contains a lot of information about the observation
(EXAMPLE) Filename: "BIBQD05S184_D065_T008S03_V03"
- BI = BIDR data
- B = data in dB normalized
- Q = obliquid dylindrical
- D = 8 pixels/degree
- 05 = absolute value of latitude at center rounded to nearest degree
- S = hemisphere of center of file (Southern)
- 184 = West longitude at center of file rounded to nearest degree
- D065 = 2-digit data take ID aka observation counter with left-padded zeros
- T008 = 3-digit Titan flyby with left-padding
- S03 = 2-digit segment number (00-99)
- V03 = 2-digit version number (01-99)
BIBQD05S184_D065_T008S03_V03.JPG:
Volume Version of Data
Some passes have multiple versions of the data.
-
Version 1 (V01) was the first archived version of the data and assumed Titan had zero obliquity, which resulted in misregistration between passes
-
Version 2 (V02) used a Titan spin model that reduced misregistration error
-
Version 3 (V03) used a long-term, accurate spin model for Titan along with other improvements
Only some Titan passes produced all of the version numbers.
-
TA-T25 : V01, V02, V03
-
$\gt$ T28: V02, V03
-
T108-T126: labeled only once as V02 but is actually V03
The version number is listed in the filenanme and in VOLDESC.CAT under the 'VOLUME_VERSION_ID'
Version 3 is the latest and preferred version
Example:
Version 1 is named BIFQI48N071_D035_T00A_V01.IMG
Version 2 is named BIFQI49N071_D035_T00AS01_V02.IMG
Version 3 is named BIFQI49N071_D035_T00AS01_V03.IMG
Segment Number of Data
A single flyby can produce multiple image segments (Sxx). S01 is the primary imaging segment with other segments referring to periods in the flyby when the instrument went to/from altimetry/SAR/HiSAR or weird pointing profiles.

SBDR Files
Total width of the RADAR swath is created by combining the five individual sub-swaths, where the center beam is the highest gain

BIDR and SBDR Files
Note: "CORADR_0048", "CORADR_0186", "CORADR_0189", "CORADR_0209", "CORADR_0234" do not have associated BIDR values.
There are data gaps and problems from the original downlinking and satellite location
CORADR_0048 (T4) did not have SAR data, only scatterometry and radiometery because of telemetry reasons in the handbook
CORADR_0186 (T52) only have rad and compressed scatterometry
CORADR_189 (T53) only has rad and compressed scatterometry because of what appears to be a downlink problem
CORADR_0209 (T63) only has scatterometry and radiometry
CORADR_0234 (T80) only has scatterometry and radiometry

Ontario Lacus was visible in four swath observations: T57, T58, T65, T98 (Page 163).
To access flyby of Ontario, first specify a flyby. For this example, Ontario Lacus with the features:
- Titan flyby id: 'T65'
- resolution: 'D' (8 pixels/degree)
- Main imaging segement 1: 'S01'
extractFlybyDataImages()

pydar.extractFlybyDataImages(flyby_id='T65', resolution='D', segment_num="S01", additional_data_types_to_download=["STDR", "LBDR"])
extractFlybyDataImages() will retrieve images from PDS website and saves results in a directory labeled 'pydar_results' with the flyby obsrevation number, version number, and segement number in the title (for example pydar_results/CORADR_0065_V03_S01)
convertFlybyIDToObservationNumber

import pydar
observation_number = convertFlybyIDToObservationNumber(flyby_id)
Observation number based on the 'Radar Data Take Number' in the cassini_flyby.csv file with front padding to ensure that all observation numbers are 4 digits long (0065 and 0211)
Requires each Titan flyby ID to be a valid value the cassini_flyby.csv

TODO:
TODO Code:
- retrieveIDSByTime() based on time or time range
- add a colored outline around a feature when displaying as a 2D image
- segments will be less than 99 (default to 1 - 01 is the primary imaging)
- README for all the functions and their sections
- progress bars print to command line (still downloading...)

- what is the timestamp for start/stop time: "2005-301T03:53:56.971" format? YYYY-MDDTHH:MM:SS.mms?
- get longitude values when greater than 180 (everything is relative to west)
- add details for what a segement_num is
- associate burst ID from SBDR data to BIDR data for metadata
- save .IMG as an array of pixel values
- save .IMG as .SHP for ArcGIS
- project image onto Titan spheriod
- downloadAdditionalDataTypes() does not have functionality (["ABDR", "ASUM", "LBDR", "STDR"]), decide which files to download
TODO: Tech Debt
- use README information to gather files for download (save computing, tech debt)
- CSV script to be run before each pypi package update by developer not user
