. VectorMagneticField : The vector magnetic field, hmi.B*, is computed from Stokes parameters derived from an independent set of polarized filtergrams. The basic vector field observing cadence is 135 seconds and uses images from HMI's Magnetic camera. The 36 filtergrams measure six polarization states, I plus or minus Q,U,and V, at the same six wavelengths. All filtergrams are corrected for instrumental effects and interpolated to the proper time. Most analysis is done with weighted averages computed every 720s using data collected over 1215 seconds (nine 135s intervals). The processing happens in three steps. First Stokes parameters ([http://jsoc.stanford.edu/ajax/lookdata.html?ds=hmi.S_720s hmi.S_720s]) are computed.

A HARP is initially identified automatically in a sequence of HMI line-of-sight magnetograms. HARPs are typically observed over several days (possibly as long as a disk passage) and tracked from one image to the next. At each time step, the rectangular HARP bounding box is provided and a BITMAP that characterizes the pixels of the HARP is recorded. The bounding box encloses the maximum heliographic extent of the region during its life time. The BITMAP indicates which pixels in the box are part of the HMI active region patch and can be applied to an HMI image. Keywords provide summary information about the patch (e.g. the total line-of-sight magnetic flux) as well as geometric and heliographic specifics. The HARP information is being used to determine regions of interest for vector field inversion processing, both for past data (hmi.ME_720s_fd10) and for near real time processing (hmi.ME_720s_fd10_nrt). Near real time HARPs (hmi.Mharp_720s_nrt) are a little different than definitive HARPs because the entire history or each region is not known; NRT and definitive HARP numbers differ.
