JSOC Names

All sorts of names are needed to use JSOC data. Names are used to find dataseries, to find specific information in the metadata kept in each data record, etc. This page contains links to details about the various names in JSOC.

Series Names

JSOC Series Names serve both as names for sets of data and as queries to locate the data. The names consist of three parts, a Namespace, a Project name, and a Record Specification.
