The NASA Space Weather App provides access to space environment
information from the sun to the earth giving users a look at
complex physical processes as they evolve and how these processes
affect the near earth space environment. Enormous explosions of gas
and charged particles from the sun known as Coronal Mass Ejections
or CMEs can be viewed on the NASA Space Weather App minutes after
an eruption has been observed from satellites like the joint
European Space Agency and NASA mission Solar and Heliospheric
Observatory (SOHO) NASA’s Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory
(STEREO) as well as NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory ( SDO ). The
potential effects of such solar storms can also be viewed by
accessing one of the many space weather model data products that
use observational data to forecast potentially hazardous space
environment effects. The Community Coordinated Modeling Center at
NASA GSFC operates the largest collection of real- time space
weather models in the community and provides direct access to these
real-time space weather simulation results through the NASA Space
Weather App. In addition to the NASA provided observational and
simulation data products the NASA Space Weather App also utilizes
external space weather resources from a host of collaborators such
as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and
their Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites
(GOES).
All data products (cygnets) in the NASA Space Weather application are user selectable allowing customized display configurations that include only the cygnets of interest to each user. NASA Space Weather App has a catalog of over 200 unique space weather analysis data cygnets ranging from the solar domain all the way to the earth’s ionosphere. A new History Mode allows users to view and animate historical data for each of the cygnets.
Development of the iSWA (Integrated Space Weather Analysis) system and the NASA Space Weather Android App has been a joint activity between the Office of the Chief Engineer at NASA Headquarters and the Applied Engineering and Technology Directorate and the Science and Exploration Directorate at NASA Goddard. The iSWA system is located at NASA Goddard.
The Community Coordinated Modeling Center is funded by the Heliophysics Division in the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters and the National Science Foundation.
