eSDO Algorithms, Visualization and Data Access Elizabeth Auden 27 September 2006 HELAS Workshop Nice
What is eSDO? eSDO is an e-science project funded by PPARC to make SDO data and algorithms available to the UK solar community using the virtual observatory. eSDO Duration: 36 months, October 2004 – October 2007 SDO Launch: October 2008 RESEARCH - Phase A: 1 October 2004 – 30 September 2005 IMPLEMENTATION - Phase B: 1 October 2005 – 30 September 2007 Current eSDO Project Documentation: http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/twiki/bin/view/SDO
