hmi.rdVtrack_fd30

Data Series Class: mapped and tracked data cubes
Creating Module: mtrack
Input Data: hmi.V_45s

Data Processing Status

Data for CR 2096:240–2125:030 (1 May 2010 – 16 July 2012) were mapped and tracked using a camera position angle that was subsequently established to be about 0°.07 in error and corrected. Reprocessing of the tracked cubes using the corrected angle, and of the data products dependent on them, was completed on 6 Nov 2021.

Data for CR 2096:240 through at least CR 2236:005 were mapped and tracked based on Dopplergrams with an ephemeris value for the Carrington longitude of disc centre that was in error by 0°.0819. Data processed with mtrack v 2.4 or higher correct for this error.

Due to inconsistent spacecraft rotation angles, data for CR 2202:270, 2202:210–180, and 2203:270 were tracked without detrending by background subtraction of the long-term averages.

Values of the keyword CRLN_OBS describing the Carrington longitude of the central meridian at the time of observation in the input Dopplergrams hmi.V_45s (and the corresponding magnetograms and other observables, as well as those in the 720-sec cadence series) were erroneous, consistently too high by 0°.081894, corresponding to a time offset of 1 AU/c and a plate location offset of about 3 pixels. The correction for new data is ongoing as of 21 Jul 2022. This may introduce a detectable error in the tracking rate. Tracking of uncorrected data corrects for this error beginning with mtrack v 2.4.

For data produced with versions prior to mtrack v 2.3, the reported value of MidTime is 22.5 sec later than it should be.

Versions of creating module used to produce records in the data series:

The following records have been subsequently reprocessed and exist in multiple versions in the DRMS database:

Records for CR 2096–2101 that were reprocessed in 2020 (between Sep 27 and Dec 6) were subsequently removed due to an error in the tracking code used at the time.

For current processing status, see the Ring-Diagram Status page.
