This data set contains the complete set of Mariner 6 near-encounter enhanced photographs on an IBM 360, binary magnetic tape. Each file contains a single picture, and each record in a file corresponds to a line of TV pictures. A picture element is written in binary as an eight-bit byte. Preceding the binary picture data of each file are several label records written in EBCDIC. These records, which contain five 72-byte logical records each, provide information such as the number of lines and samples in the following file, the picture identification, and a history of the computer processing to which the picture has been subjected.
