Welcome to the web pages of the AAVSO Solar Section, a world-wide group of observers dedicated to observing the closest variable star in the sky -- our own Sun! On these web pages, you'll find information on who we are, what we do, and how we contribute to the scientific study of the closest star in our sky.
Thanks to a great volunteer effort by George Silvis, Sudden Ionospheric Disturbance (SID) observers can now use the SID Data Grabber help prepare an AAVSO SID report file from their Stanford/SARA superSID monitor log files. Please visit the SID Data Grabber page to read more and download this handy application.
The SID Data Grabber is an application to help prepare an AAVSO SID report file from your Stanford/SARA superSID monitor log files. It offers a zoomable graphical view of the log data where you can click the graph to grab the times then puts them into the AAVSO format report file, ready for submission at the end of the month.
