Issues fixed for this release -------------------------------------------------------- [SPICEPCR-471] - Update to solo_ANC_soc-sc-fk [SPICEPCR-472] - Update to solo_ANC_soc-solohi ck Appendix: Release History =========================================================================== March 19, 2020 v1.0.5 Corrected METIS FOVs reference angles Minor description edits in S/C FK. Added corrected ESTRACK FK and SPK kernels. February 19, 2020 v1.0.4 Fixed bug in partition start time of step SCLK. Added files from preview release to PI teams by Andrew Walsh. February 13, 2020 v1.0.3 Corrected SOLO_GSE and SOLO_HEE definitions to implement definition of secondary vector w.r.t. EARTH_MECL_MEQX_J2000 that has also been defined (EARTH_MECL_MEQX frozen at J2000 epoch). All in science FK. January 31, 2020 v1.0.2 SCLKs fictional and step corrected and updated for start of operations. Minor updates in Science and Spacecraft Frames kernels. Added updated ESTRACK FK and SPK kernels and EARTH_FIXED frame. October 1, 2019 v1.0.1 Cleaned up more deprecated kernels (moved to misc/deprecated_kernels). Corrected SOLO_SUN_RTN frame definition in science frame kernel. July 5, 2019 v1.0.0 Added README files to all the directories (including DOI references). Cleaned up some deprecated kernels (moved to misc/deprecated_kernels). Frames Kernels: - Corrected typo in SOLO_METIS_IEO-M0 descriptions. - Added SOLAR-ORBITER and SOL acronyms. - Corrected several typos and IDs. - Corrected SOLO_SUN_RTN frame definition and updates names and IDs for the frames from [17]. Corrected SOLO_GAE for it cannot be a rotating frame if the epoch is frozen at date J2000. March 29, 2019 v0.4.1 Bug-fix update that includes a test roll CK kernel. Frames Kernels: - Updated SWA EAS reference frames - Corrected SOLO_SUN_RTN frame definition and updates names and IDs for the cross-mission heliophysics frames. - Included New Norcia station topographic frame. Instrument Kernels: - Updated SWA EAS FoV defintions according to the new science frames definitions. CK Kernels: - Added test Roll CK kernel. SPK Kernels: - Included New Norcia PSK. March 28, 2018 v0.4.0 This release has been motivated in order to provide a SPICE scenario for the ``Low Latency Pipeline 'Test Card' Data'' test. The current SPICE Kernel Dataset covers the two scenarios: - Scenario 1: Perihelion, Disk Centre Pointing [2022-03-31T00:02:47Z - 2022-04-01T00:02:46Z] - Scenario 2: Maximum Southern Latitude, Near-Limb Pointing [2022-03-03T00:02:44Z - 2022-03-04T00:02:43Z] Instrument Kernels: - Updated smaller typos and descriptions. - Remote sensing sensors FOV frames corrected from SOLO_*_ILS to SOLO_*_OPT. SPK kernels: - Generated SPK for 2018 Option-E candidate trajectory. CK kernels: - Generated Default roll attitude for 2018 Option-E trajectory - Generated Pitch-Yaw attitude for Scenario 2 with: Spacecraft Pitch 15 Arcminutes Spacecraft Yaw 20 Arcminutes SCLK kernels: - Generated a ``real'' SCKL with its origin at 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z. October 19, 2017 v0.3.0 Frames Kernel: - Reviewed by SOLO SOC (Christopher Watson). Updated references and descriptions. - Corrected SOLO_SOLOHI_ILS and SOLO_EPD_EPT definitions and descriptions. - Renamed the Spacecraft Physical reference frame "SOLO_PRF" (the Airbus definition, which becomes unknowable in-flight) to Spacecraft Reference Frame "SOLO_SRF" (what is in the FITS definitions). - Added inboard and outboard segments of the instrument boom. CK kernels: - Generated V02 of all the CK files due to the frame name update SOLO_PRF -> SOLO_SRF. - Removed 'solo_ANC_soc-sc-boom-ck_20180930-21000101_V01.bc' for now the INS_BOOM has two separate CK frames. MK kerneks: - Renamed MKs (removed 'default' from the filename) Instrument Kernels: - EPD: Renamed and added sensor definitions SOLO_EPD_HET_MY and SOLO_EPD_HET_PY. - METIS: Reviewed by SOLO SOC (Christopher Watson). Corrected FoV definition. - SPICE: Reviewed by SOLO SOC (Christopher Watson). Corrected FoV definition. - STIX: Reviewed by SOLO SOC (Christopher Watson). Corrected FoV definition. July 6, 2017 v0.2.0 Frames kernel partially reviewed by SOLO SOC (Andrew Walsh) Added Science frame kernel and STR instrument kernel. Please note that this release is the first public release of the Solar Orbiter Kernel Dataset. May 19, 2017 v0.1.0 Initial release of the Solar Orbiter SPICE Kernel dataset. This release incorporates an initial draft of the kernels updated and corrected during coordination meetings in between the ESA SPICE Service and the Solar Orbiter SOC (Marc Costa Sitja, Andrew Walsh and Chris Watson). This iterations are reflected in the Minutes of Meeting of the ESS-SOLO coordination meetings that took place until the release date. Please note that this release has not been publicly released on the FTP but distributed internally to the SOLO SOC by the ESA SPICE Service. End of aareadme.txt
