                    INDEX Directory Contents

The index directory contains tabular index files, accompanied by detached 
PDS labels, intended for database use.  The following files are found in 
this directory.

indxinfo.txt -    The file you are reading.

index.lbl    -    Detached PDS label for index.tab.

index.tab    -    Index table for the sample calibrated images on the current
                  Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem Calibration volume.



              Notes on Using the Image Index 

     The index table in this directory contains one row (record)
for each image on the Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem Raw EDR 
volume.  The table is formatted so that it can be read directly into 
many data management systems.  All fields are separated by commas, 
and character fields are enclosed in double quotation marks (").
Character fields are left justified, and numeric fields are
right justified.  Each record ends with ASCII carriage return and
line feed characters.  This allows the table to be treated as a
fixed length record file on computers that support this file type
and as a normal text file on other computers.

     The index.lbl is a PDS label file that describes the
content and structure of the fields in the index table, including
field name, format, and description.  The values for start byte
and number of bytes listed in the label file do not include commas
between fields or quotation marks surrounding character fields.
