Poster PDF (20.8 MB)
After 11 years of making remote UV hyperspectral observations of the Earth's ionosphere, APL's UV instruments are well characterized and able to support the derivation of a wide variety of important ionospheric and auroral zone data products. In this paper, we present highlights of the most recent advances in UV observations and newly designed data products, including: automated ionospheric bubble detection, 3-D tomographic electron density reconstruction, auroral boundary characterization, Global O/N2 ratio, Solar EUV flux (Qeuv), and a variety of other data products useful for characterizing space weather. We will describe these products and their utility to users.
