Non-Standard Practices
The PDS standards do not specify where to store the required MD5 checksum
file for a volume. We have placed it in the root dietary of the volume
with the file name "CHECKSUMS.TXT". This may be considered invalid by some
verifiers.
Known validation error in /DATA/SW8509* values in UT_HOUR and UT_MINUTES
columns unable to be cast to the type ASCII_INTEGER for the reason that data
columns contain nothing if the data are blank spaces.

The following is the original ERRATA text for the HAL_0026 volume that this
data set was included in. Note that not all of the files mentioned below
are a part of the current data set volume.
***** File ERRATA.TXT
Errors in the IHW CD set
1. Check vol 18, /summary/errata for listing by CD disc number and
vol 23, /summary/errata for listing by IHW Discipline.
2. The insert booklet (HALGUIDE.TXT) for the release of the 24 volumes
contains a list of general errata determined after the CD-ROMs were made.
A.) In the text file /document/cdtree.txt of Vol. 7, the name of the
compressed data directory is not c86mar07; it should be c86mar11.
B.) The "Quick Look Indices"---QUIK0nn (nn=19-23)---are incorrect;
corrected versions are placed in the summary directory of Vol. 23.
C.) In the files /document/cdtree.txt of Vols. 20 and 21, the Quick Look
Index is named QUIK019; correct names are QUIK020 and QUIK021.
D.) On Vol. 22, several directories were emptied of their planned files to
reduce the disc size (in Mb). The file aareadme.txt lists some files
but refer to file /document/cdtree.txt of Vol. 22 for completeness.
E.) The /aareadme.txt file of Vol. 19 is wrong; the correct date range of
Vol. 19 is 1981 December 2 -- 1985 December 8.
F.) The /ephem/ephem.tab ephemeris files on Vols. 19-23
lack line delimiters required by executable (and source) interpolation
code in the /software/obsnterp directory. Difficulties may also arise
when displaying the file using an editor or when typing to the screen.
Solution: replace lines 211:212 and 244:245 in file obsnterp.for with
"Read(10,'(17x,f9.1,(1xi2,1xf6.3),(2xa1,2xi2,1xf5.2),2(1xf7.4,1xf8.4),
5(1xf5.1))',end=80)", and run the compiled code on the ephemeris file
/index/ephem.idx. It is possible to rebuild the ephem.tab file to
include ❮cr❯,❮lf❯ and use the existing code. NOTE: delimited
versions of ephem.tab called ephminfo.txt are present in each of
the data directories, the time span of a ephminfo.txt file matching
that of the directory.
G.) On Vol. 24 there are some inconsistencies with the QUIK* and PATHTABL
index files; the path separator is sometimes given as a "/" or "\"
3. Two publications are referenced in association with the Archive. In
the Comet Halley Summary a series of articles, most of which are digitized
on Vols 19-23 in the "appendix" subdirectory, describe the data collection,
and science involved. A hardbound Atlas of Large-Scale Phenomena collects
analog images, most of which are in the digital Archive; the data can be
associated by identifying LSPN numbers in the Atlas with the LSPNSEQ number,
not the actual CD-ROM file number. For example, for the picture of Comet
Halley on page 36 for Konkoly Observatory, the LSPN-3431 number can be found
as follows: search NETLARGE.IDX for date/time specified (1985 OCT 22.02434=
22/10/85,0.02434) and find column 16 - this contains LSPNSEQ #343131. The
first 4 digits (of this I6 number) represent a unique running number used by
LSPN to log all data; the last 2 digits (31) are a code for indicating that
only one scan was used to digitize a plate. Now find the last column (73)
which contains the filename (LSPN0099) which is an eight character (A8) field.
4. Known inadequacies not corrected include the following:
a. the index files are sometimes very wide (upwards of 1000
characters) and lack padding for easy use as true FITS files
b. the only supplied software (except for interpolation program)
is that used in the production process on a DOS platform
5. New problems that have been identified with the IHW CDs
a. Meteor Radar index table (with data) is not in strict time order
b. set of 8 radio continuum data which indicate data are in fact zero
c. Soviet photometry (narrow band) incorrectly reduced
d. AAREADME.TXT file for disc 20 is incorrect (copy of file from 22)
e. NETLARGE.IDX file on discs 19-23 has a missing sign in the x and y
scan values (cdelta1, cdelta2) for the subsampled (browse) data
f. the FORMAT for the QUIK_nnn.hdr files is incorrect; it states
an A24 format which should be A44 but the byte count is correct
g. The file CALIB_IR.TXT on Disc 23 is missing 2 entries for IRIM4028,
IRIM4029; the data exist but the information was omitted here.
h. The DAT-FORM keyword is mislabelled as DAT-TYPE in all the QUIK_nnn
header and label files; the value is DAT-FORM given as A8 format.
i. The files for LSPN0268 (.HDR,.LBL,.IBG, .IMQ) are listed as
LSPN0269 in various index files (PATHTABL, LS_PHEN, NETLARGE)
6. Problems with the PDS labels that were discovered and not corrected
a. wrong data_set_id for IRFCURV data
b. calibration targets not consistent
c. label for RSUV data has the wrong "OBJECT", it should consistently
read TABLE; the current OBJECT = SPECTRUM is not correct when the
recorded VLA data refers to a continuum measurement
d. label for the IRSPEC data is missing a scale factor
e. voldesc.sfd file on 19-22 has missing control characters
7. During PDS peer review for Vols. 1-23, there were some NNSN problems
a. first identified by reviewers and then checked at SBN and GSFC
b. series of images identified with observer (M. A'Hearn, et al.)
c. range of problem scoped: 4/4/86 to 4/14/86, includes 130 images
d. solution posed: identify observer/observatory/system values, treat
as full FITS file with minimal header; loose bottom 3.5 lines
8. Other review errors identified in the metadata:
a. CDSTRUCT.IDX has the wrong control characters (OA/OD) which need
to be replaced by (OD/OA)
b. PATHTABL.LBL has a reference to PATH_023.IDX not PATHTABL.IDX
c. NETMETV has a misidentified column 17, which should read Total_-
Minute_Count
d. redefine SENSE keyword in NNSN in terms of NAXIS1 and NAXIS2
e. incorrect value "0" to indicate NULL field in SPEC header angles
9. Review errors in the data:
a. IRSP0008.DAT has a bad point, probably a typo
b. flux discrepancy between SPEC1687 and SPEC1693
c. flat fielding for NNSN3265,3277,3295,3296, and 3315 in doubt
10. A number of files on volumes 25 and 26 have a typo in the SFDU indentifier
mistakenly the PDS version number is not shown as PDSX. In addition,
a submitted PIA file on vol 25 was missing data see *.DOC.
