Compression Workshop For Clementine UVVIS Image Data


The Clementine satellite compressed a majority of its image data for transmission to the Earth-based ground stations.  Some image data was returned with no compression applied so that we might study the impact of compression on image data from the UVVIS camera.

This page also illustrates the capabilities of ACT's WWW ProVIEW cgi server. All the operations on the server are done on the fly by executing a ProVIEW script file.
