| Solar Images - White Light - ISOON |
 |
The Improved Solar Observing Optical Network (ISOON) project is a collaboration between
the Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicles Directorate and the National Solar
Observatory. ISOON is a semi-autonomous, remotely commandable patrol telescope designed
for studies of solar activity in support of space weather specifications and forecasts.
ISOON can receive and analyze solar images and other data at a remote location --
in essence, forming a desktop solar observatory. ISOON acquires solar images in the
hydrogen-alpha line (once per minute), in continuum (once every ten minutes), and
in line-of-sight magnetic fields. The current dataset is limited to daily solar images
in the 630.315 continuum.
