Not listed THIS PROPOSAL TARGETS "SUB-ELEMENT B.4.1: OPEN DATA - DEVELOPMENT ELEMENT (ODDE)." MAGNETIC FLUX SYNOPTIC CHARTS ARE CRITICAL FOR RELIABLE MODELING OF THE CORONA AND HELIOSPHERE. HOWEVER CURRENT SYNOPTIC CHARTS HAVE SEVERAL LIMITATIONS. FIRST THEY ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY ESTIMATE OF UNCERTAINTIES. SECOND THE SYNOPTIC MAPS ARE STILL CONSTRUCTED USING THE LINE-OF-SIGHT MAGNETOGRAMS UNDER A RESTRICTIVE ASSUMPTION THAT THE MAGNETIC FIELD IN THE PHOTOSPHERE IS VERTICAL. THE MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROPOSAL IS TO DEVELOP NEW DATA PRODUCTS INCLUDING THE UNCERTAINTY MAPS OF SYNOPTIC CHARTS FULL VECTOR AND COMPOSITE MAPS (COMBINATION OF TRADITION SYNOPTIC MAPS AND FULL VECTOR FIELD MAPS) AND RADIAL FIELD SYNOPTIC MAPS OF CHROMOSPHERIC FIELD. THESE NEW SYNOPTIC MAP DATA PRODUCTS WILL ENABLE PROPER ESTIMATES OF UNCERTAINTIES WHICH WILL IMPROVE THE MODELING OF SOLAR WIND SPEED INTERPLANETARY MAGNETIC FIELD SHAPE OF SOLAR CORONA THE LOCATIONS OF SOURCE-SURFACE NEUTRAL LINES THE BOUNDARIES OF CORONAL HOLES AND OTHER PARAMETERS OF HELIOPHYSICS SYSTEMS THAT RELY ON SYNOPTIC CHARTS FOR THEIR MODELING. THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS BASED ON MAGNETIC FIELD DATA FROM THE SDO/HMI WHICH WILL BE SUPPLEMENTED BY THE OBSERVATIONS FROM A GROUND-BASED FACILITY (CHROMOSPHERIC MAGNETOGRAMS FROM SOLAR OPTICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE SUN SOLIS FACILITY). MAGNETIC FIELD DATA TAKEN BY SOLIS/VSM IN CA II 854.2 NM CHROMOSPHERIC SPECTRAL LINE WILL PROVIDE A UNIQUE DATA PRODUCT CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE FROM ANY NASA SPACECRAFT. THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL BUILD ON RECENT EXPLORATORY WORK BY THE TEAM. WE DEVELOPED A CONCEPT FOR (SO CALLED) FIRST GENERATION ERROR (UNCERTAINTY) MAPS IN WHICH UNCERTAINTIES ARE REPRESENTED BY SPATIAL VARIANCE OF THE MAGNETIC FLUX DISTRIBUTION THAT CONTRIBUTES TO EACH BIN IN THE SYNOPTIC CHART (BERTELLO ET AL. 2014). AS A SEPARATE DEVELOPMENT WE ALSO EXPLORED THE CREATION OF FULL VECTOR FIELD SYNOPTIC MAPS (GOSAIN ET AL 2013). THESE EARLY TESTS INDICATED ONE POSSIBLE DIFFICULTY IN CREATING THE VECTOR FIELD SYNOPTIC MAPS I.E. A REDUCED SENSITIVITY OF VECTOR FIELD DATA IN QUIET SUN AREAS AND THE POLAR REGIONS. TO OVERCOME THIS LIMITATION WE WILL DEVELOP THE COMPOSITE SYNOPTIC MAPS WHICH COMBINE TRADITIONAL SYNOPTIC CHARTS FOR WEAK-FIELD AREAS WITH THE FULL VECTOR MAPS FOR AREAS OF STRONG MAGNETIC FIELD. THE USE OF COMPOSITE SYNOPTIC MAPS WILL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE MODELING OF GLOBAL MAGNETIC FIELDS. FINALLY WE WILL CREATE THE SYNOPTIC CHARTS OF (THE RADIAL COMPONENT OF) THE CHROMOSPHERIC MAGNETIC FIELD. DUE TO THE PREVALENCE OF FORCE-FREE FIELD CONDITIONS THE CHROMOSPHERIC FIELDS ARE EXPECTED TO PROVIDE MUCH BETTER BOUNDARY CONDITIONS FOR THE EXTRAPOLATION MODELS. ONE DIFFICULTY THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IN THE CREATION OF THESE MAPS IS THE DIVERGENCE OF MAGNETIC FIELD WITH HEIGHT AT THE CHROMOSPHERIC LEVEL WHICH INVALIDATES THE ASSUMPTION OF VERTICALITY OF MAGNETIC FIELD UNDER WHICH THE PHOTOSPHERIC SYNOPTIC CHARTS ARE CONSTRUCTED. TO OVERCOME THAT DIFFICULTY WE WILL EMPLOY THE MEAN CORRECTION FUNCTION DERIVED FROM THE OBSERVATIONS (JIN ET AL. 2013). ALL CODES DEVELOPED FOR THE CREATION OF THESE NEW DATA PRODUCTS WILL BE MADE PUBLIC BY PROVIDING THEM TO CCMC AND SDO/HMI TEAM. ALL DATA PRODUCTS WILL BE PUT INTO A PUBLIC DOMAIN VIA SDAC AND NSO DIGITAL LIBRARY. $0 6/5/17 2 THIS PROPOSAL TARGETS "SUB-ELEMENT B.4.1: OPEN DATA - DEVELOPMENT ELEMENT (ODDE)."
