2025-04-17

The following ISWA HAPI data feeds had their time parameter structure modified on April 17, 2025:

  • The main time parameter now corresponds to the StartTime of each data point
  • This effects line plots of these parameters, the time-axis will now correspond to the start time of the data points.

New Kp Timelines

  • Bar charts for observed Kp
  • Improved annotations when hovering over observed Kp bars, that shows start and end times.

Timeline improvements

2025-04-07

Major Update to ISWA Sync:

  • New Dynamic-Flares cadence option
    • higher resolution cadence during M & X solar flares
    • graphical plot display of long wave data used in figuring out the flares
    • graphical display of the adjusted cadence
    • you can click on plot to change the selected time
  • Adjusted how ISWA Sync throttles the cadence. Uses the number of image products on screen in the calculation of throttling cadence. Less images on screen allows for higher resolution.
  • Preload Images Button
    • preloads all the images to be shown for the selected sync time range.
    • allows for smooth scrubbing when images are preloaded.

Performance boost: plots should load faster.

Improved CCMC Logo and CCMC Text

Toggles for stacks in pre-defined stack charts. Allows to hide/show slices of the stack plot. For example SWAN Timeline.

Removed iframe embedding.
