The geospace environment data analysis system Original Research Article

This paper presents our recent efforts installing a high-technology computer system, called GEDAS, at the Solar-Terrestrial Environment Laboratory, allowing us to conduct integrated studies combining ground-based and satellite-based observations and simulation research. GEDAS lets researchers/engineers around the world communicate instantaneously and will actively be involved in researching and predicting space weather. We demonstrate in this paper some of the on-going core projects, including predictions of major geomagnetic storms based on solar wind information, as well as specifications of the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling system. It is planned that data products generated from real-time original data and simulation models can be nearly instantly provided to the world community via GEDAS.
