The IUGONET project - Objectives

The IUGONET project aims at building “e-infrastructure” for researchers to effectively find, get, and analyze various kinds of upper atmospheric data spread over universities and institutes.

To distribute ground-based observational data accumulated over 50 years since IGY (both digital and analogue data)

To promote analyses of multi-disciplinary data, which will lead to comprehensive studies of mechanisms of long-term variations in the upper atmosphere

What is UDAS?

Load procedures included in UDAS v2.00.1Load procedures included in UDAS v2.00.1

The software has been developed in collaboration with ERG Science Center.

UDAS (IUGOENT Data Analysis Software) is a plug-in software of TDAS and includes the load procedures for the ground-based observational data distributed by the IUGONET institutions.

We have more upper atmospheric data to be released in future.(e.g., all-sky images, keogram, solar images, etc.)

How to install UDAShttp://www.iugonet.org/en/software/install.html

0. If TDAS has not been installed yet, download TDAS and set it up.

1. Download UDAS from the IUGONET website.

2. Unzip the downloaded file.

3. Copy UDAS into any directory you want.

4. Set IDL path to access UDAS prior to TDAS.

The latest version is v2.00.1 (for TDAS v7.00)

On the other hand, new load procedures for the other IUGONET data will be still released as a patch from the IUGONET website.

We built the TDAS that can run on the environment of IDL Virtual Machine.

You can use the TDAS (with only GUI) without any IDL licenses. The executable file has been released for public testing in the following website:

Summary

13

The IUGONET project (http://www.iugonet.org) builds metadata database and data analysis software (UDAS) to promote effective use of upper atmospheric data taken by various ground-based observations.

The IUGONET products have been released.

UDAS is a plug-in software of TDAS and provides the load procedures for the various ground-based observational data distributed by each institution in the IUGONET project.

In near future, UDAS will be packed into TDAS and released from TDAS website. In addition, their executable file that can run on IDL-VM will be released.
