Guest Storage Facility

In 2019, the PSA developed a new feature, the Guest Storage Facilty. This consists in an FTP file repository into which scientists from the planetary community can upload and share scientific products valuable for the community.

Inputs

Scientific products to be hosted in the Guest Storage Facilty should be of interest for the planetary science community, and overall making use or presenting new products from ESA's planetary missions.
The format of the data is entirely up to the data producer choice.
The PSA only require the "Data User Guide" to be provided, the template can be downloaded here.
An associated scientific peer-reviewed publication associated to the products is encouraged

Inquiry to the PSA for storage

Potential data producers should get in touch with the PSA, either through their known contacts, the mission archive scientsist, or simply get in touch with us.
After initial contact, the PSA will then contact the data producers to formalize the process and provides credentials for the FTP access to upload the data.
A Digital Object Identifier (DOI) could be assigned to each delivery, this is an optional functionality that is also highly encouraged.

PSA review of the GSF

While the products are looked at by the archive scientists (i.e., not all one by one), no proper full scale peer reviewed scientific analysis are done.

UCL-MSSL_iMars_HRSC_V1.0 February 2019 A high spatial resolution (50m) Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and orthorectified Image (ORI) have been produced for the Martian South Polar Residual ice-Cap (SPRC)for 33 HRSC strips and the associated ORIs at 12.5m. In addition, a 50m DTM mosaic has been created alongside a 12.5m ORI mosaic. For the ORI mosaic, Individual HRSC image strips have been corrected for different surface scattering properties prior to mosaicing Link to the PUG MarsExpress

IPGP_Titan_Huygens_V1.0 August 2020 A new digital terrain model of the river networks observed at the Huygens landing site has been computed throughout a tailor made photogrammetric workflow, by using a set of overlapping, newly re-calibrated images acquired by the DISR cameras during the Huygens probe's descent. The resulting DTM (hereafter called IPGP-DTM) provides the best available spatial sampling of Titan's landscape (18 m) and increases the size of the reconstructed region up to 10.3 km².

UCL-MSSL_Oxia-Planum_HRSC_CTX_HiRISE_MADNet_V1.0 2021 A multi-resolution DTM covering the 3-sigma landing ellipse of the 2020 for the Rosalind Franklin ExoMars rover mission. This unique dataset has been created using a novel deep learning technique called MADNet 1.0. This consists of a HRSC-DTM mosaic at 25m grid-spacing co-registered to MOLA DTM at 463m/grid-spacing. A 12m CTX DTM mosaic is co-registered to this HRSC 25m DTM. Finally a 50cm HiRISE derived DTM mosaic is co-registered to the 12m CTX DTM. Alongside this are the individual CTX 6m OrthoRectified Images (ORIs) and the 44 HiRISE 25cm ORIs Link to the PUG

These mosaics include a  Digital Terrain Model (DTM) at 1m and OrthoRectified Image mosaic (ORI) at 50cm based on 0.5-1.5m LROC-NAC single scenes. In addition, the context DTM (14m) and ORI (7m) image from Chang'E-2 global mosaic which was itself co-registered to the global LOLA+SELENE dataset (59m at 128 ppd). Generated using Single Height Estimation algorithm MADNet 2.0 originally trained for Mars but re-trained for the Moon using all available good quality LROC-NAC stereo pairs. 370 LROC-NAC scenes were selected and co-registered to the CE2 ORI mosaic.

Mars_HRSC_High-Altitude-Mosaic_V1.0 2023

A high-altitude observation campaign with the Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera was used to construct five global mosaics of Mars from images captured through each of its five different spectral filters: panchromatic, red, green, blue and infra-red.

The substantial overlaps of high-altitude images enable the calculation of a global colour model yielding mosaics which both retain long range colour information and maintain high relative colour accuracy. The mosaics are currently processed at 2 km/pixel.
