= make_sumfiles.e =

make_sumfiles ingests in images into SPC.  It takes in, as standard input, the name and camera position of the images.  It will convert the image into the <filename>.DAT format in [IMAGEFILES].  It will also generate <filename>.SUM in [SUMFILES] and <filename>.NOM in [NOMINALS].  Finally, it will append the image name onto [PICTLIST.TXT].

Builds the sumfile and nominals

B-Frame let's you set the NOM and SUM to the body fixed frame.


You must update the ck and spk entries in ["make_sumfiles.txt"].  You must have entries that cover the time of all of your images.


This program is non-standard.  While the goal is to make a single version that does it all, each mission has a different image format.  This program frequently has different versions for different missions to get the data in a form usable by SPC.

=== Input - files ===
 * ["make_sumfiles.txt"] - list of SPICE kernels
 * ["make_sumfiles.in"]  - list of files from ["process_img"]

== Output ==

 * ["PICTLIST.TXT"]
 * ["NOMINALS"]
 * ["SUMFILES"]



== Example for Mercator ==

 * Image name (the name of the image in pgm format, and stored in [NEW_IMAGES])  
{{{ 
 A1_05
}}}

 * Image time  
{{{ 
 410256.22608  (this is GPS time, but sometimes UTC is used)
}}}

 * Camera Location   
{{{ 
 31.69495, -110.62658, 17716.61873  (for Mercator, this is Lat/Lon and altitude of the aircraft)
