Planetary Test Data contains a list of planetary data for software testing purposes and utilities to retrieve them.
- Free software: BSD license
- Downloads a core set of sample Planetary test data into
./mission_data/
or./tests/mission_data/
if./tests/
exists.
- Download to central cache directory and use symbolic links to share data between projects or other locations.
- Find smaller example images to reduce download times.
- Command line usage improvements
- Include a mode that allows users to somehow specify subsets of data to retrieve. Perhaps selecting by mission or instrument name.
- Improve label testing.
- Include Mission Names with each product.
- Include product type with each product.
See also the Github issues for this project.
To download the core set of planetary test data install this package with pip and then run the command get_mission_data
:
pip install planetary_test_data
get_mission_data
Additional usage options are shown below:
usage: get_mission_data [-h] [--all] [--file FILE] [--dir DIR] [--tags [TAGS]]
[--instruments [INSTRUMENTS]] [--missions [MISSIONS]]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--all, -a Download all products.
--file FILE, -f FILE Override default data.json by providing path to custom
data.json file.
--dir DIR, -d DIR Directory to place test data products in.
--tags [TAGS], -t [TAGS]

[--instruments [INSTRUMENTS]] [--missions [MISSIONS]]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--all, -a Download all products.

here.

--missions [MISSIONS], -m [MISSIONS]
Get products by mission
Running get_mission_data
will do the following:
- If
tests
directory exists it will createtests/mission_data
if necessary. Iftests
does not exist, it will just createmission_data
in the current directory. - The data prodcuts tagged to be
core
products will be downloaded into the download directory. - Use the
-a
or--all
flag to get all the images. This, however, is NOT recommended for you will download over 200 images and labels. - The
-t
or--tags
will retrieve products matched with the supplied tag. To give multiple tags, use the flag multiple times. - The
-d
or--dir
flag can be used to save the images in a new custom location. - If there exists a custom
data.json
locally and you would rather use that file to download images rather than the default, use the-f
or--file
flag and then the path to thedata.json
. This is especially useful if there are test images needed that do not exist in or are not part of thecore
in the defaultdata.json
(seeget_mission_json
below). - To get products by mission use the
--mission
or-m
flag. This will download all the products from the given mission, even noncore
products, unless explicity givencore
as a tag. To specify multiple missions, use the flag multiple times. You must spell the mission the same as spelled in Missions and Instruments (case matters!). - To get products by instruments use the
--instruments
or-i
flag. This will download all the products from the given instrument, even noncore
products, unless explicity givencore
as a tag. To specify multiple instruments, use the flag multiple times. You must spell the instrument the same as spelled in Missions and Instruments (case matters!). - Only products which do not exist in the download directory will be downloaded.
Running get_mission_json
will do the following:
- Create a copy of
data.json
in thetests
ortest
directory. This will just be thecore
data by default. The purpose of getting a copy of thedata.json
is so it is easier to include images in respective projects that are not included in the defaultdata.json
. Then developers can use the-f
flag onget_mission_data
(see above) to use this customdata.json
. - If
data.json
already exists, an exception is raised. - The same flags apply to
get_mission_json
asget_mission_data
.
The PDS mission data included in the package can be found here.

If there are products you think should be included or removed from this dataset please file a Github issue. New images should be images from instruments that are not already included or different file types (i.e. EDR vs RDR). New core images should be distinctly different than the ones that exist and would expose test and/or edge cases for multiple PlanetaryPy projects/affiliates. For example, if there was not an RGB image included in the core products (which there is), then that would test image would expose an edge case for many projects. However, it is best to use get_mission_json
to get a copy of data.json
, add the desired test images to that json file, and then download images using get_mission_data -f path/to/data.json
. We recommend using a make test
command to get the proper mission data before testing.
The data.json
file contains PDS product names, urls and other metainformation about the product. This structure will be extended to support generic testing, for instance the label
key will be changed to a dictionary that includes product label keys and the values found at those keys.
Below is a sample snippet of a data.json
entry:
"1m298459885effa312p2956m2m1.img": {
"instrument": "MICROSCOPIC IMAGER",
"label": "PDS3",
"opens": "True",
"url": "http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/data/mer/opportunity/mer1mo_0xxx/data/sol1918/edr/1m298459885effa312p2956m2m1.img"
