WHOLE SUN CATALOG
The
Whole Sun Catalog (WSC) was a project In cooperation with the
SOHO Archive and
BASS2000 with the goal of creating a central catalog of all
solar observations made around the world every day.
There are well over 60 solar observatories located around the
world each obtaining a wide variety of potentially useful
observations. However, tracking down all the available
observations, even in the internet age, can be a logistical
nightmare. The Whole Sun Catalog was founded with the idea that if
one could collect a list of all available solar observations at a
single site.
Currently, some of the main concepts of WSC are
developed by archive projects like
VSO and EGSO.
