Doctoral training 2017, planetary science

1)  OV-planéto / VESPA Presentation
	VESPA_FormDoc_2017

2) Tutorials

• Titan : http://voparis-europlanet.obspm.fr/utilities/Tuto_Titan_TopCat.pdf
Basic use of VESPA search interface & VO tools
	Follow tutorial. Pages on VOplot are optional
In addition:
	- Look for profiles located between long 340°E and 30°E, N hemisphere
	- Look for profiles acquired during N hemisphere summer
		 (parameter solar_longitude in Advanced Query Form)
	- Look for CO2 profiles, then temperature profiles only
		(parameters: species, then measurement_type; look in service results how it is encoded)
	- Plot footprints in Mizar, on Cassini global mosaic
	- Play with Activate Actions in TOPCAT 

• VIRTIS on Venus-Express: http://voparis-europlanet.obspm.fr/utilities/Tuto_TopCat_VEx.pdf
More elaborate use of VESPA search interface & VO tools
	Follow tutorial. Pages on SpecView and VOspec are optional (both getting old)
	Use Venus_Magellan_C3-MDIR_ClrTopo_Global_Mosaic_1024.jpg
	Search on footprint intercepts is currently only a demo (dummy footprint implemented in data service)
In addition:
	Look for visible spectra only (range in µm <1.2 µm)

•  Mars craters
Advanced planetary plots in Aladin
	Select all craters > 200 km diameter in VESPA (from Mars_craters in Advanced Query Form)
	Plot in Aladin over a MOLA HiPS computed from a cylindrical map 
		Mars_MGS_colorhillshade_mola_1024.jpg
		Image > Astrometrical calibration
		(scale = 360° / 1024 px = 21.12' / px ; use Cartesian mode)
		Tool > Convert current image to a HiPS
		Send from VESPA as footprint > s_region 

• Mars atmospheric profiles, observations vs simulations
Use of VESPA search interface with 2 services
	Pick up a profile from SPICAM 
	Try and get closest simulation from MCD, compare in TOPCAT
	Then try to call MCD script with the exact same parameters as SPICAM (look at access_url links)
