Reflectance data
This directory contains reflectance target files. These contain reflectance spectra for the different patches in the target, with the PCT data being recorded for a range of different stereo reflectance angles with the incidence angle being fixed at roughly the position of the PCT on the rover.
Each file is a PCOT archive (.parc) file which should be placed
in the cameras directory. This must be specified in the .pcot.ini file
in the locations section:
[Locations]
reflectances = /home/white/PCOT/reflectances
.pcot.ini can be
found in the user's home directory.

AUPE Colorchecker (Simple reflectance)
Data captured from the Colorchecker used for most AUPE observations by Harry Marsh on 11 June 2025 using an RS-3500 and "a tiny integrating sphere."

PCT (BRDF for PCT)
Data captured by Jack Langston in August 2025, consisting of RS3500 captures of reflectance spectra from the different on Aberystwyth's PCT. The angles supported are phi in 30 degree increments between 210-360 inclusive, and theta in 5 degree increments between -80 and 80 inclusive. The zero phi angle runs from the centre of the WCT2065 (big pink) patch to the centre of the Pyroceram (big white) patch.
Patches: BG18, BG3, NG11, NG4, OG515, Pyroceram, RG610, WCT2065
