RESIDUALS.TXT is a report created by [[residuals]] that looks for bad landmarks. This text file is created by [[residuals]] to report on landmarks that have residual values above the criteria set when the program was run.
Line 9: Line 7:
A basic description of the information in RESIDUALS.TXT. '''RESIDUALS.TXT''' captures and reports three types of information:
Line 11: Line 9:
 * The post-fit residuals between predicted and actual control point positions in all images are captured in the residuals file
 * The post-fit residuals between predicted and actual control point difference between adjacent, overlapping maplets are captured in the residuals file
 * Outliers in both quantities are flagged automatically based on input threshold criteria 
 * The post-fit residuals between predicted and actual control point positions in all images.
 * The post-fit residuals between predicted and actual control point difference between adjacent, overlapping maplets.
 * Outliers in both quantities are flagged automatically based on input threshold criteria.
Line 15: Line 13:
A more in depth list explaining the information in the RESIDUALS.TXT file is shown below.

 * In between the dot rows:
  * The name of a landmark
  * T (landmark has a map with it) or F (flat landmark, no image)
  * Resolution
  * Lat of landmark
  * Wlon of landmark
  * Radius
 * Below the dot rows with the landmark name above them:
  * For each image:
   * 1st column - picture name
   * 2nd column - PX residual (# of pixels in image resolution)
   * 3rd column - LN residual (# of pixels in image resolution)
   * 4th column - magnitude of PX and LN residuals (# of pixels in image resolution)
   * 5th column - the estimate linear residual (km)
  * For each overlap:
   * 1st column - overlap name
   * 2nd column - X residual (km)
   * 3rd column - Y residual (km)
   * 4rd column - Z residual (km)
   * 5th column - estimate linear residual (km)
  * For each limb apperation:
   * 1st column - picture name
   * 2nd column - PX residual (# of pixels in image resolution)
   * 3rd column - LN residual (# of pixels in image resolution)
   * 4th column - magnitude of PX and LN residuals (# of pixels in image resolution)
   * 5th column - the estimate linear residual (km)
 * Below the images, overlaps, and limbs list for a landmark:
  * Landmark name
  * magnitude of RMS linear residual for landmark
 * Below the single dot row at the very bottom of the image:
  * Observations - how many IMAGEFILES, overlaps, and limbs for all landmarks
  * RMS RESIDUAL - overall RMS linear residual in meters.

The user should note that residuals are the difference between observed landmark positions and those predicted by the solution (SPC).

Observed landmark positions are exactly as the name suggests, positions of a landmark calculated by the code when it inputs pictures from the spacecraft of the object.

Predicted landmark positions are those calculated by SPC when it inputs simulated images of the shape model generated.

Think of simulated images being taken at the updated SUMFILE positions and attitudes until the simulated image is as close to the actual image as possible.

Thus, when the RMS between landmark residuals is as low as possible the updated SUMFILE is the new estimate for space craft position and attitude.

Residuals are the difference between observed landmark positions and those predicted by the solution (SPC).

Observed landmark positions are positions of a landmark calculated by the code when it inputs pictures from the spacecraft of the object.

Predicted landmark positions are those calculated by SPC. When it inputs, it generates a solution (map) from all the pictures collected.

During iteration and refinement of the SPC solution, the position and attitude of the spacecraft are slightly changed over and over until the maps match the images until an optimum solution has been converged upon. At the end of each iteration, [[SUMFILES]] are then updated for the new attitude and position.

When the RMS between landmark residuals is as low as possible, ..., it indicates no futher processing will improve the solution. This means that the updated [[SUMFILE]] is the new estimate for spacecraft position and attitude.

RESIDUALS.TXT

Description

This text file is created by residuals to report on landmarks that have residual values above the criteria set when the program was run.

RESIDUALS.TXT captures and reports three types of information:

  • The post-fit residuals between predicted and actual control point positions in all images.
  • The post-fit residuals between predicted and actual control point difference between adjacent, overlapping maplets.
  • Outliers in both quantities are flagged automatically based on input threshold criteria.

Here is a sample RESIDUALS.TXT file. Elements of the data in each of the four sections are explained below.

Residuals are the difference between observed landmark positions and those predicted by the solution (SPC).

Observed landmark positions are positions of a landmark calculated by the code when it inputs pictures from the spacecraft of the object.

Predicted landmark positions are those calculated by SPC. When it inputs, it generates a solution (map) from all the pictures collected.

During iteration and refinement of the SPC solution, the position and attitude of the spacecraft are slightly changed over and over until the maps match the images until an optimum solution has been converged upon. At the end of each iteration, SUMFILES are then updated for the new attitude and position.

When the RMS between landmark residuals is as low as possible, ..., it indicates no futher processing will improve the solution. This means that the updated SUMFILE is the new estimate for spacecraft position and attitude.
