In this article we briefly review the Assimilative Mapping of Ionospheric Electrodynamics (AMIE) procedure and discuss responses to inferred dayside and nightside reconnection events from an ionospheric viewpoint. Output from the AMIE procedure is used to illustrate our discussion. We focus on events occurring just prior to and during the passage of a non-compressive density enhancement, a type of solar wind transient, on 3 November 1993, and during a more normal substorm event on 10 November 1993. We present instantaneous convection and current maps for several times during the events and `difference maps', which show how the currents and convection change over short periods of time. The `differencing' capability, especially when combined with other information, such as particle injection data and magnetometer pulsation data can provide a powerful diagnostic for identifying substorm onset and investigating substorm and reconnection response.
