Abstract:
|
The launch of the Solar Dynamic Observatory in 2010 pushed the field of Solar Physics solidly into the big data era by gathering several terabytes of imaging and magnetic field data of the Sun every day. The size of the data archive means that on-line visualization tools, metadata catalogs, and event databases have become increasingly important. In this talk, I will review some of these tools, as well as their challenges and limitations. Some of these challenges include: cleaning databases of false positives, calibration issues, and verifying completeness.
