Engineering Report for P-3/UWB Flight Portage, Maine 27-28 June 1995, Volume 1

Abstract

This report is written as an aid to users of the SAR data collected by the P-3/SAR on 27-28 June 1995. The data set generated consists of: (1) HDDT #E1439, (2) HDDT #E1440, (3) HDDT#E1441, (4) HDDT #E1442, (5) Mission Plan disk, data, etc., (6) Navigation disks, (7) Post Pass disks, and (8) Post Pass Summary Sheets. The report consists of a summary of each pass with crew comments included. Users of the data should review the pass summaries to be alerted for anomalies that may have occurred during the collection or noted by processing or analysis people. The appendix contains plots of critical parameters as a function of time. This information is provided so that users can examine, in some detail the exact time and magnitude of observed anomalies. In addition users can go back to this data to determine if there is a correlation between funnies observed during processing and the engineering data. For example, if there was a blank strip in the image it might correlate with the transmitter power plot showing that the transmitter was off during that time. All of the data shown in the plots is also recorded on the HDDT's in the Aux. data block and could be reproduced by the user. These plots are included in the appendix as a convenience for users of the data. The appendix is available upon request and thus is not included with this set of data.
