New columns for digitizer including local time and centrifugal latitude

On a Iowa/PDS zoom meeting we identified a set of changes to make to the density files, now that local time and other parameters are more easily available. The table of column names and values is updated from

and special modes are now only needed for the moon files.

  • The first twenty parameters remain the same by position
  • Camel case markedType becomes Marked_Type, and likewise for 12,13,14.
  • MLT goes from column 21 to 23
  • longitude goes from column 22 to 25, and is described as "SYSIII west longitude"
  • jovigraphic_latitude and centrifugal_latitude are added in 21 and 22.
  • local time is added in 24.
