Update SPICE data (kernels, pointing, and position) for a camera cube
Description
Categories
Groups
Examples
History
This program searches the ISIS data areas in order to discern the SPICE kernels required for the camera cube. Cubes which have supported camera models in the ISIS system require spacecraft position, pointing, body shape and orientation, sun position, and other information in order to compute ground positions (latitude/longitude) and photometric viewing angles. This information is stored in SPICE kernels.
The program uses the "SpacecraftName", "InstrumentId", "TargetName", "StartTime", and "StopTime" keywords from the cube's label to determine which kernels to use. It attempts to find kernel files for the following keywords and writes them to the Kernels group:
The program modifies the kernels group and writes the name of the SPICE files that need to be loaded by the camera models. It has the option of pre-reading the data from the SPICE kernels and loading it as a binary table attached to the cube. This can faciliate faster load times and allows the instrument pointing to be easily updated.
As kernels are loaded they override the data in previously loaded kernels. The order in which kernels are loaded is:
The InstrumentPositionQuality and InstrumentPointingQuality keywords are added to the Kernels group to indicate the level of quality of the loaded kernels. At least one of the parameters CKPREDICTED, CKNADIR, CKRECON, or CKSMITHED must be entered. Furthermore, at least one of the parameters SPKPREDICTED, SPKRECON, or SPKSMITHED must be entered.
Please note: Kernel Files specified that reside in the current working directory will not have their paths expanded. This is to allow variables like $msg/ to work correctly.
The spiceinit program will also add the RayTraceEngine, OnError, and Tolerance keywords to the Kernels group if specified in the IsisPreferences file. If included, these keywords specify the ray-tracing engine to use and how to use it for shapemodels. Please see the IsisPreferences file for more details.
Troubleshooting: If spiceinit is failing with the error "No Camera Kernel found for the image ..." then try enabling the "CKPREDICTED" or "CKNADIR" option. A similar error exists for SPK kernels, and you can enable "SPKPREDICTED" to get past that error. "PREDICTED" and "NADIR" options typically have less accuracy than reconstructed and smithed kernels which is why they are disabled by default.

This option uses the ISIS SPICE Website to get the most up to date kernels available. The ATTACH parameter must be enabled for this option. Manually specifying kernel files is not allowed when this option is used. This service may be temporarily unavailable when new Isis releases are being distributed. Any mismatch in Isis version will cause this option to fail; only the most recent version of ISIS is supported. An active internet connection is required to use this service. Running with this option is slower than downloading the SPICE data locally (download all of $ISISDATA) and running spiceinit with the local data. This data can take up a lot of space. The size of the download will depend heavily on the mission and instrument of your input file.

---|---|
Default | TRUE |
Allow the use of pointing kernels marked as Smithed. If this parameter is selected, smithed kernels may be used to cover the time requirements of the image. Please consider the source, content, and completeness of a smithed ck-kernel before selecting. The keyword InstrumentPointingQuality=Smithed will be added to the Kernels group if this quality kernel is loaded.
Type | boolean |
---|---|
Default | FALSE |
Allow the use of pointing kernels marked as Reconstructed. This is the default option. If reconstructed kernels cannot be found for the given time range, the program will fail. The keyword InstrumentPointingQuality=Reconstructed will be added to the Kernels group if this quality kernel is loaded.
Type | boolean |
---|---|
Default | TRUE |
Allow the use of pointing kernels marked as Predicted. The program will check the reconstructed kernels for the given time range first. If the time range is not found, spiceinit will check for predicted kernels. If predicted kernels cannot be found for the given time range, the program will fail. The keyword InstrumentPointingQuality=Predicted will be added to the Kernels group if this quality kernel is loaded.
Type | boolean |
---|---|
Default | FALSE |
This option will create nadir pointing data. The higher quality kernels will be checked first. If the given time range cannot be found, spiceinit will use a nadir kernel. The keyword InstrumentPointingQuality=Nadir will be added to the Kernels group if this quality kernel is loaded.
Type | boolean |
---|---|
Default | FALSE |
Allow the use of position kernels marked as Smithed. If this parameter is turned on, smithed kernels may be used to cover the time requirements of the image. If a smithed kernel cannot be found, spiceinit will look for a reconstructed kernel for the given time frame.

When the kernels for an image are loaded, by default only what the image requires is loaded. By setting this option, the loaded kernels start at the specified amount of time before the image start time. Using this option for framing cameras could significantly decrease the accuracy of the NAIF information because this will cause the information to be interpolated between the STARTPAD and ENDPAD.

Debbie A. Cook | 2000-06-08 | Original Version |
Stuart Sides | 2003-11-05 | Complete rewrite under ISIS 3.0 conversion. |
Stuart Sides | 2004-01-14 | Modified to use an existing "Kernels" group instead of creating a new one. This was because the mission specific import program (e.g., moc2isis) was modified to create the "kernels" group and put the "NaifFrameCode" into it. |
Stuart Sides | 2004-01-23 | Added new parameter "TEST." This parameter controls the testing of the final kernel list. If false the kernels will not be tested for completeness by creating a camera model. |
Stuart Sides | 2004-02-23 | Added elevation model DEM capabilities. |
Stuart Sides | 2004-02-24 | Completed capabilities to search for kernels of different qualities such as PREDICTED, NADIR, RECONSTRUCTED, and C-SMITHED. |
Stuart Sides | 2005-11-08 | Added fix for framing cameras, so they would not need a stop time in the instrument group of the labels. |
Elizabeth Miller | 2005-11-14 | Added appTest |
Jacob Danton | 2005-12-22 | Added support for multiple files within the kernels |
Jacob Danton | 2005-12-27 | Added a progress bar |
Jacob Danton | 2006-01-03 | Fixed the xml description |
Jacob Danton | 2006-01-25 | Changed the mission translation file name |
Jacob Danton | 2006-01-25 | Changed the appTest to comply with changes in the String class. |
Jeff Anderson | 2006-03-27 | Modified to write InstrumentPointing, InstrumentPosition, SunPosition, and BodyRotation information to SPICE tables in the cube. |
Brendan George | 2006-09-19 | Added call to modify the history of the cube |
Brendan George | 2006-10-19 | Modifed to remove label entries for SPICE tables, if ATTACH is unchecked, and the input cube already has them. |
Steven Lambright | 2007-07-10 | Combined Frame and InstrumentPointing. Changed to support new version of KernelDb. Cleaned up the code. |
Steven Lambright and Steve Koechle | 2007-07-10 | Fixed problem where the allowed kernels were being set improperly. |
Steven Lambright | 2007-08-10 | Fixed so that when no spacecraft pointing is found, but frame kernels are, and Nadir is allowed it still adds the Nadir keyword. |
Steven Koechle | 2007-10-05 | Added a check to see if the cube had an existing polygon, if so delete it. |
Steven Koechle | 2007-10-25 | Fixed Smithed enum, changed from C-Smithed. |
Steven Koechle | 2007-12-14 | Added error handling logic. If the user chose to use Nadir CK and another type, and the system found a file where the image falls in a gap (no pointing is available) Nadir would never be calculated. Fixed. |
Steven Lambright | 2008-02-13 | Added time padding options |
Steven Lambright | 2008-02-21 | Added additional explanation of time padding options |
Steven Lambright | 2008-02-22 | Split the CK parameter into FK and CK, they are still combined in the label as InstrumentPointing. |

Steven Koechle | 2008-06-17 | Added CK check and throw more appropriate error |
Christopher Austin | 2008-09-12 | Added the removal of StartPadding and EndPadding keywords from previous spiceinit runs, and added some double inited tests. NOTE: Whenever adding new keywords, run spiceinit twice on the same cube in your test, dumping out both labels to verify that the keyword is not being duplicated. |
Tracie Sucharski | 2009-03-12 | If spice is put into a Table, append the kernel name to the Kernel group keyword to keep track of original spice kernels. |
Steven Koechle | 2009-05-12 | Added CameraVersion into the Kernel labels |

Steven Lambright | 2011-10-05 | As a result of our test and review team, I have updated the documentation to match the recommendations of Laz Kestay and Ken Edmundson. Fixes #423. |
Jai Rideout | 2011-11-18 | Fixed bug in writing tables to the cube that were retrieved from the web service. |
Debbie A. Cook | 2012-07-06 | Updated Spice members to be more compliant with ISIS coding standards. References #972. |
Jeannie Backer | 2013-02-26 | Added ability to load multiple ck database files from the system using a conf file. Changed methods to lower camel case to comply with Isis3 standards. Added web example. References #924. |
Tammy Becker | 2014-03-31 | Made a few documentation modifications regarding kernel quality keywords and shapemodel keyword. References #1849. |
Kimberly Oyama | 2014-04-27 | Added assets directory for web example. Updated Documentation. Fixes #1849. |
Tyler Wilson | 2016-12-19 | Changed the URL for the spice server to https://services.isis.astrogeology.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/spiceinit.cgi and the default port to 443 (it was originally 80). This is due to the recent https migration implementation from within the Department of the Interior, which was causing people on the outside of the DOI network to get an unrecognized server response error when attempting to download spice data. Fixes #4552. |
Christopher Combs | 2017-06-01 | Removed examples with links leading to missing images. Created two new examples: one with default settings and another with a user-chosen ShapeModel. |
Kristin Berry | 2017-06-06 | Updated spiceinit to retain ShapeModel-related keywords set by the ShapeModelFactory and add them to the kernel group. Like other keywords in the kernels group, if they are present at the beginning of a spiceinit run (if we are re-spiceiniting) they are removed. |
Kristin Berry | 2017-08-06 | Updated spiceinit to remove code dealing with the CubeSupported Pvl Keyword, from the ShapeModel group in the IsisPreferences file, which has been removed. |
Christopher Combs | 2018-01-11 | Made change to camera construction error throw for better reporting on uninstantiated cameras. Fixes #5163. |
Jesse Mapel | 2020-02-26 | Changed PCK selection to use the same qualities as CK so that target body parameters derived from bundle adjustment can be used alongside CKs derived from bundle adjustment. Fixes #3669. |
Jesse Mapel | 2020-12-10 | Modified to remove state string and model information from the csminit application. |
Kaitlyn Lee | 2020-12-21 | Updated shape model keyword in the kernels group when shape=user and web=true with the user specified model. Fixes #1986 |
Kaitlyn Lee | 2020-12-22 | Moved writeHistory() call to main function because a history entry was only being written to the cube when using a data area for kernels (not using the web service). Fixes #4040. |
Adam Paquette | 2021-08-10 | Fixed the NaifKeywords PvlObject not being updated/replaced when spiceinit with web=true was run on a cube that was already spiceinit'd. |
