DATE-OBS |
FITS |
MDI DATE-OBS is
mean time as if at Earth. See T_OBS |
The
time and date of the start of the observation, in UT at the observatory or
spacecraft, in CCSDS ASCII Calendar Segmented (ISO 8601). Example:
1988-01-18T17:20:43.123 |
|
|
|
|
DATE_OBS |

DATE_OBS was DATE-OBS +
EARTH_DT, i.e. time as if SOHO was at the center of the Earth. For SDO same as DATE-OBS. |

T_OBS |

MDI |
MDI DSDS data uses T_OBS same as DATE-OBS -
EARTH_DT |
Same as DATE-OBS + EXPTIME/2.0, but may be
corrected past level-0. I.e. DATE-OBS
will be the onboard time but T_OBS may be corrected if onboard time dirfts. |

FITS Standard general array index mapping to

i is axis in "world space", j is axis in raw image
space, c means 0 or 1 letter for the case where multiple mappings are given. |

SOLAR_X |
SSW |
east-west on the
Sun in arc-sec from CM, + is to west.
For SOLAR_X to be used the rotation CROTAj or PCi_j must be such that
the solar rotation axis projects onto a column of the rotated image. SOLAR_X should be applied to CTYPE1. |

SOLAR_Y |
SSW |
north-south on Sun in arc-sec from disk center, + is north. For SOLAR_Y to be used, the rotation CROTAj
or PCi_j must be such that the solar rotation axis projects onto a column of
the rotated image. SOLAR_Y should be
used for CTYPE2. |
