Support Modules

The navigation, reprojection, backplane, and PDS4 pipelines share a small set of cross-cutting support subsystems — the YAML configuration loader plus the static-data catalogues it parses, and the project-wide logging contract. This chapter documents those subsystems in one place so consumers do not have to chase them through the per-pipeline pages.
