There might not be any new HiRISE images to release (yet) but that does not mean we have been idle here at the HiRISE Operations Center. In fact, we have been very busy improving our existing images with new calibration and a different color stretch, making sure our entire data set is consistent, and preparing new product types!

For starters, our Extended Science Phase (ESP) images are now consistent, making use of all the latest and greatest fixes and improvements to our processing pipelines. These updated products are out now. The older Primary Science Phase (PSP) observations are still reprocessing; we should have them ready for an upcoming monthly release.

Next up, we have a fantastic new product called a Digital Elevation Model. Learn more about these products in an upcoming blog post!

Finally, several of our observations have been improved with updated descriptions.  For example, an image might have been taken of a crater that did not have an official name at that time. After the crater receives an official name, we try to go back and update the description for observations of that crater. Recently we had time to do that for a lot of observations. Unfortunately, the software used to update the EDR and RDR labels inadvertently corrupted the first few image data lines. Our attentive Targeting Specialists and Student Validators spotted the minor differences between reprocessed images and older versions. We have corrected the description update tools and reprocessed the EDRs from the 745 observations affected by this problem. Anyone who has downloaded HiRISE EDRs prior to the December 2009 release should check the list below to ensure any EDRs being worked with are not on this list. If the EDRs you have are from the observations on the list, you can check the “creation date” in their label. If the creation date is before November 4, 2009 then you should download the latest version. If the creation date is after November 4, 2009 then the EDR is good. The latest version of all of the EDRs for the following observations are now available on the PDS and on our website.
