SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the need to visualize complex solar observation data, including raw EUV imagery, preprocessed data, and the outputs of machine learning models, making scientific analysis more accessible.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • EUV Image Display: Renders solar EUV images from FITS files with customizable colormaps and normalization.
  • Multi-Wavelength Comparison: Creates side-by-side panels to compare solar features across different wavelengths.
  • Preprocessing Visualization: Shows 'before and after' comparisons of data preprocessing steps.
  • ML Model Output Visualization: Displays input data, model predictions, and ground truth for ML model evaluation.
  • Animation & Distribution Plots: Generates time-lapse animations of solar activity and plots pixel intensity distributions.
  • Use Case: Visualize a multi-wavelength comparison of a solar flare event using SDO/AIA data to understand its evolution across different atmospheric layers.

Quick Start
