JHelioviewer Description

Explore 14 years worth of images from SOHO and create your own movies of the Sun JHelioviewer is a free Java based visualization software for solar image data based on the JPEG 2000 image compression standard. JPEG 2000 offers many useful new features and has the potential to revolutionize the way high-resolution image data are disseminated and analyzed. The JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol, JPIP, enables us to serve data in highly compressed, quality progressive, region-of-interest based form. These features make it possible to minimize the data volume transmitted while maximizing its usability. This is especially relevant for solar physics since NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory will soon provide more than a terabyte of image data per day. Providing efficient access to this huge data volume at both high spatial and high time resolution is of paramount importance to support scientific discovery. JHelioviewer is released under the Mozilla Public License Version 1.1. Requirements: · Java 5 or later What's New in This Release: · Supports single-channel JPEG2000 files with palette.
