Utility Programs
----------------

The executables and User's Guides for the following utility programs::

   ARCHTYPE  BINGO     BRIEF     CKBRIEF   CKSLICER  CKSMRG
   COMMNT    DAFCAT    MAKLABEL  ORBNUM    SPACIT    SPKDIFF
   SPY       BFF       FRMDIFF   OPTIKS

mentioned in this document are available from the "Utilities" page on
the NAIF web site, `NAIF Utilities <https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/utilities.html>`_.

Note that for some environments (e.g. Linux, Mac/OSX) these utilities
can not be statically linked and require certain shared object libraries
in order to run. Usually these libraries can be installed on your
computer by installing the compiler used to compile the executables
(e.g. gfortran/gcc).


Tutorials
---------

A collection of tutorials covering most aspects of using SPICE kernel
files and allied Toolkit software is available from the "Tutorials"
page on the NAIF web site, `NAIF Tutorials <https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/tutorials.html>`_.


SPICE Kernel Archives
---------------------

SPICE archives are available on the NAIF server either directly,
from the `FTP-like HTTP page <https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/naif/pds/pds4/>`_,
or from the `NAIF Data page <https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/data_archived.html>`_.

They may be useful as examples for new archive producers.


PDS Standards
-------------

The PDS standards Documents are available on the PDS documents web site,
`PDS4 web site Data Standards <https://pds.nasa.gov/datastandards/documents/>`_
of these the following might be most useful:

   * Concepts Document
   * Data Provider's Handbook
   * Standard's Reference
   * Context Products


PDS Validate Tool
-----------------

The PDS Validate tool is available at the
`validate tool website <https://nasa-pds.github.io/validate/>`_.
