Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO Sample Clauses

Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO. In order to leverage further the substantial national investment in solar physics, NSO is participating in the development of a Virtual Solar Observatory, the European Grid of Solar Observations (EGSO), and the Collaborative Sun-Earth Connection (CoSEC). The VSO will initially comprise a collaborative distributed solar data archive and analysis system with access through the WWW. The system was released for public use as a beta version in December 2003 at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/. The overarching goal is to facilitate correlative solar physics studies using disparate and distributed data sets. Necessary related objectives are to improve the state of data archiving in the solar physics community; to develop systems, both technical and managerial, to adaptively include existing data sets, thereby providing a simple and easy path for the addition of new sets; and eventually to provide analysis tools to facilitate data mining and content-based data searches. None of this will be possible without community support and participation. Thus, the solar physics community is actively involved in the planning and management of the VSO. For further information, see xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/. In the time frame covered by this Long Range Plan, NSO should make major strides toward becoming a central component of both the VSO and EGSO. Both of these community-wide systems should be on-line by the end of this LRP period. In addition, the NSO archives should be observatory-wide with components at both sites. These components should link together enhanced pipeline processing systems similar to those now available as the Improved Solar Observing Optical Network (ISOON) and GONG++; massive storage systems based on the initial XXXXX system; an instrument-driven pipeline and PI data capture systems at all NSO observing facilities; and a large-scale photographic digitization system. The details for this expansion have been discussed in the NSO Data Plan (see xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/general/docs/). 4 CURRENT SUPPORT FOR SOLAR PHYSICS Improved instrumentation, especially adaptive optics, has kept NSO telescopes at the leading edge of solar physics. They remain extremely productive and among the most useful solar telescopes in the world. Although the major NSO telescopes are three or more decades old, they still play a key role in support of US and international solar research. The NSO telescope upgrade and instrument development program is guided by the scientific and technical imperatives for...
