Accessing and Using GOLD and ICON Data Through SPDF Services
Abstract
SPDF (https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov) is designated as a NASA Heliophysics active final archive. Working in cooperation with current operating missions and the helophysics community, SPDF ingests, preserves and serves a wide range of past and current public science-quality data from the ionosphere into the furthest reach of deep-space exploration. We will present how SPDF is working directly with GOLD, ICON and Parker Solar Probe in preparation to archive and serve their data in the near future. SPDF develops and maintains the Common Data Format (CDF) and the associated ISTP/SPDF metadata guidelines. SPDF is leveraging this work to now support the netCDF data from GOLD and ICON and expand higher-level support for AIM and other ITM mission data in turn. SPDF services include CDAWeb, which supports both survey and burst mode data with graphics, listings and data superset/subset functions. All public data held by SPDF are also available for direct file download by HTTPS or FTP links from the SPDF home page (https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov). SPDF is currently receiving and serving from missions including the four MMS spacecraft, Van Allen Probes 1/2 and the five THEMIS/ARTEMIS spacecraft, as well as e.g. ACE, Cluster 1/2/3/4, DMSP 16/17/18, Geotail, GOES 13/14/15, NOAA/POES 15/16/18/19, MetOP POES 1/2, Stereo A/B, TWINS 1/2, Wind and >120 Ground-Based investigations). SPDF also operates the multi-mission orbit displays and query services of SSCWeb and the Java-based 4D Orbit Viewer, as well as the Heliophysics Data Portal (HDP) discipline-wide data inventory and access service, and the OMNIweb near-Earth solar wind plasma and magnetic field database.
