Welcome to the EOVSA data products documentation. EOVSA observes the full disk of the Sun at all times when the Sun is >10 degrees above the local horizon, which is season dependent and ranges from 7-12 hours duration centered on 20 UT. During January, coverage will be 16-24 UT daily, 7 days/week. EOVSA will provide microwave spectra and imaging at up to 451 frequencies between 1 and 18 GHz. We deliver the radio interferometry data in level 0-2.

Our working definition is that Level 0 is the raw visibility data from the instrument, whereas Level 1 corresponds to the calibrated visibility data, which have all of the required content to produce Level 2 images and spectrogram data in standard FITS format. All of these data products are archived and available online, accessed from the EOVSA server.

Level 0 - Raw visibility data from the instrument

TBD

Level 1 - Calibrated visibility data

Level 1 data have all of the required content to produce Level 2 data products.

CASA 1-min averaged ms

EOVSA 1-min averaged visibility data in CASA ms format can be retrieved from the following page:

http://www.ovsa.njit.edu/fits/UDBms_slfcaled

CASA Event ms

TBD

Level 2 - Images and spectrogram data in standard FITS format

Getting level 2 data

EOVSA Level 2 data products can be retrieved from the "synoptic data" page:

http://www.ovsa.njit.edu/fits/synoptic

Example - get the synoptic data on December 25, 2019

  • go to EOVSA browser page.
  • Browse to December 25, 2019.
  • Click "synoptic fits" button next to the calendar tool.
  • Select the data product you want to download based on the name in the following list.
