Science and Mission Planning Tools for Space Weather and Human Exploration

Talk

The Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC, https://ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov) has developed many tools to aid in the scientific analysis of space weather. These tools leverage the many numerical simulations hosted at the CCMC while pulling in relevant observational data. These tools provide both context and scientific investigation to better understand space weather. CCMC tools are used...

Science and Mission Planning Tools for Space Weather and Human Exploration

Talk

Accurate forecasting of Earth-directed Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) and their geo-effectiveness requires advanced early warning capabilities that exceed the limitations of current single-point L1 monitors. Sub-L1 multi-spacecraft architectures offer a highly promising solution; however, architecting these missions requires robust, end-to-end simulation environments to evaluate payload...

30. Designing and Implementing a Reusable Multi-Mission Timeline Framework

Science and Mission Planning Tools for Space Weather and Human Exploration

Talk

The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) science operations team is nearing completion of a major redevelopment of the mission timeline creation software. This “Timeline Tool” is used for planning an instrument with 1-5 day timelines in LEO, often containing 10-15 planner-chosen observations per 24 hour period. We have strived to not just improve and refresh the aging timeline...

3. DOFCAT: An Optical Flow Tool for Multi-Coronagraph CME Velocity Mapping and Physics-Driven Automated Detection

Science and Mission Planning Tools for Space Weather and Human Exploration

Talk

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are among the most energetic solar eruptions and primary drivers of space weather. Despite decades of study, their internal velocity distributions remain poorly characterised. Coronagraph-based studies of CMEs have traditionally relied on leading-edge tracking or geometric fitting methods, which provide limited information about the internal velocity structure of...
