The product this atlas lists
PBT, infrared projected brightness temperature (PDS4). Map-projected brightness temperature. Check the time of day: the same place looks different at night.
ODE product type: ODY / THEMIS / IRPBT4.
Open one in JMARS
- Open JMARS. It is free from ASU at jmars.mars.asu.edu.
- In the Layer Manager, click Add New Layer, then Stamps, then THEMIS Stamps.
- Expand Image Location Parameters with the down arrow on its right.
- Type the image ID in the Image ID(s) field. Use the observation ID: a letter (V for visible, I for infrared), a 5-character orbit number and a 3-digit image number, for example I98521009. After orbit 99999 the first orbit digit becomes a letter, so IA1466013 is orbit 101466.
- Click OK. The search can take a few minutes.
- Right-click the image outline in the viewing window, then choose to render the image.
