This directory contains information files and calibration directories for various calibration steps used by the ISIS 3 CISSCAL application.
They are copied or derived from the most recent version of Cassini ISS calibration, information, and program files found at the PDS website.
Currently this is Cassini Orbiter ISS Volume 11 Version 2 (i.e. coiss_0011_v2).  This includes the IDL CISSCAL 3.6 (previous version number 3.3).


Files in this directory include:
	AAREADME_calibration_isis3.txt - The document you are reading, written for ISIS 3 CISSCAL help.
	aareadme.txt	- General information on coiss_0011_v2
	calinfo.txt	- Describes contents of each calibration directory in coiss_0011_v2
			- /antibloom/ and /distortion/ directories are not used by ISIS 3 CISSCAL
			- /linearize/ directory was created for ISIS 3 CISSCAL and will not be listed, see /linearize/AAREADME_linearize_isis3.txt
	errata.txt	- Comments and errors for coiss_0011_v2 data records and calibration files
	readme.txt  	- Includes changes made to the IDL CISSCAL program and CICLOPS contact information.

Each calibration directory will contain a 
	?????info.txt	- Copied directly from coiss_0011_v2
			- Describe original contents used by IDL CISSCAL 3.6
	AAREADME_?????_isis3.txt - Describes changes made to contents for ISIS 3 CISSCAL
