Mees Solar Observatory: Public Data Policy

MEES PUBLIC DATA POLICY

The online data from the Mees Solar Observatory, Haleakala, Hawaii are available to any user. The online data are products of processing through the data verification level: products at this level are reduced in spatial, temporal, spectral, and photometric resolution compared to the original data. We use these products to verify the operation of the instruments, the analysis pipeline, and the quality of the observations, and for operations planning, pictorial display and qualitative analysis. Users requiring higher level processing or access to a different sample of the original data are invited to contact us.
