Abstract
Over the last decade, the volume of solar big data have increased immensely. However, the availability and standardization of solar data resources has not received much attention primarily due to the scattered structure among different data providers, lack of consensus on data formats and querying capabilities on metadata. Moreover, there is limited access to the derived solar data such as image parameters extracted either from solar images or tracked solar events. In this paper, we introduce the Integrated Solar Database (ISD), which aims to integrate the heterogeneous solar data sources. In ISD, we store solar event metadata, tracked and interpolated solar events, compressed solar images, and texture parameters extracted from high resolution solar images. ISD offers a rich variety of spatiotemporal and aggregate queries served via a web Application Program Interface (API) and visualized through a web interface.
