Scientific paper

Data from NOAA's Solar X-ray Imager (SXI) are collected onboard GOES-12, down-linked and processed by NOAA's Space Environment Center, then immediately sent to NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) for archiving and public access. NGDC makes these data available via its public interface (http://sxi.ngdc.noaa.gov)the moment that they are received. In addition to providing browse imagery (PNG) and scientific imagery (FITS), NGDC also generates a series of movies (MPEG), which include sliding 12-hour movies that are updated every five minutes -- an ideal means of observing ongoing solar activity. Also, 54-day movies are updated at UT midnight, and daily and monthly movies of all historical imagery are generated and maintained online for retrospective use.
