SDO Dashboard
The Solar Dynamics Observatory dashboard supports study of the Sun's influence on Earth and near-Earth space.
About SDO Dashboard
The SDO Dashboard is a web-based display monitor for solar imagery from the Solar Dynamics Observatory. It shows several image channels in movable panels. The default layout shows three displays: AIA 0193, AIA 0171, and HMIBC. Users can add other channels, composite views, and a difference view for AIA 0193 from a slide-out panel, and drag panel headers to rearrange the page.
The dashboard can generate a URL that records the current configuration. The directory description says it supports study of the Sun's influence on Earth and near-Earth space. The homepage lists NASA Official Michael Kirk and Webmaster Apexa Patel. The source does not state pricing, geographic eligibility, usage limits, or data-handling practices.
