COMMENT DIRBE Calibrated Individual Observations: Pixel Index
COMMENT -------- Cryogenic Mission, day 255 of 1990 ---------
COMMENT
COMMENT This is the companion pixel index to the DIRBE Calibrated
COMMENT Individual Observations (CIO) data file for day 255 of 1990.
COMMENT The pixel index is intended to simplify and expedite data
COMMENT retrieval for a user-selected subset of pixels in the CIO.
COMMENT There is one row in the index table for each DIRBE pixel
COMMENT (resolution 9) observed on this day. Pixels are listed in
COMMENT ascending order. For each pixel, the pixel index table
COMMENT identifies the LAST row number within the corresponding
COMMENT CIO table which contains observations for that pixel.
