Request for your information to help SunPy

[Jack Ireland]

SunPy users!

As you may know, we joined NumFocus a few months back.  Potential NumFocus funders would like to know who is using SunPy and how.

Specifically, please send us:

(1) your organizational affiliation, and

(2) what you are using SunPy for.

Thanks,

Jack

Good Evening Jack,

Here are the information you requested:

(1) I work as assistant professor at University of Campinas
(http://www.unicamp.br), Brazil.

(2) My research group (http://highpids.ft.unicamp.br) uses SunPy to
gather data from instruments. At this moment, the data we gather could
be images (specially magnetograms) and GOES XRS LightCurves. But we
are planning to work with other sort of data. We use these data to
implement Space Weather forecasting techniques based in data mining
and machine learning algorithms.

Best regards.

Hello!

1) I am a second-year PhD student at University College London Mullard Space Science Laboratory, working in the Solar Physics group.
2) I have been using SunPy since the start of my PhD, although I have worked using Python for longer. My most-used part of SunPy is probably SunPy maps for plotting images of solar observations, although I have also used it for plotting GOES light curves and converting between astronomical coordinate systems (e.g., Carrington Heliographic coordinates to Heliocentric-Cartesian coordinates). In general, I try to use SunPy for as much of my work as possible, since Python is my preferred language, but I do still rely on IDL SolarSoft for a few functions (most notably the preparation of data from SDO/AIA).

Thanks,
Alex

Hi!

1) I'm a third year undergraduate student at the University of Washington currently working with NASA MSFC and the University of Alabama in Huntsville.

2) I'm currently using SunPy to analyze SDO AIA and HMI data

Thanks, John!

Hi John, FYI, we are working with the LMSAL group to develop tools to analyze IRIS Raster data which will likely become useful for EIS as well. I also hope you check out SunPy cube which was originally written specifically to deal with EIS data (see https://github.com/sunpy/cube)

[JohnM]

Just back from vacation and saw your post. Thanks for the info. Have also looked at the EISpy github site a bit, but development seems to have stopped long ago.

I was looking at the threads in the group and found this post from Jack. Think I'd put in my 0.02.

(1) Assistant Professor at New Jersey Institute of Technology

(2) My group is developing a package called SUNCASA (https://github.com/binchensun/suncasa), which is for reducing, analyzing, and visualizing radio imaging spectroscopy data from VLA, EOVSA, and potentially other instruments. The package is based on CASA (python-based package used for radio synthesis imaging), Sunpy, and some others. The functionality is still very limited and the modules/routines are not very well organized. We use Sunpy for various tasks including plotting radio and EUV maps, GOES lightcurves, and so on.
