Welcome to the SDO Heliophysics Event Knowledgebase Wiki
This wiki supports development and use of the [http://www.lmsal.com/helio-informatics/hpkb/ HEK] software system for use by [http:hmi.stanford.edu HMI] and [http://aia.lmsal.com AIA] instruments on the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) mission. Intended readers are regular users of SDO data or HEK softwar and developers of HEK software.
This is a work in progress. So Be warned!
Overview
This is where we will present an overview of the system and its major components
Components
Registries
This is for materials on the Heliophysics Event Registry (HER, aka [http://www.lmsal.com/helio-informatics/hpkb/ HPKB]), Heliophysics Coverage Registry (HCR, see [http://sot.lmsal.com/sot-data LMSAL Hinode Data Center] for prototype) and the [http://www.lmsal.com/hpkb/pod Movie Registry].

Protocols & Standards
For the components of HEK to work, we have adopted certain protocols and standards. These will be documented here. Currently these are the Event Schema, Solarsoft and REST-style webservices.
Event Schema
HEK has adopted an enhanced form of the [http://ivoa.net/internal/IVOA/IvoaVOEvent/VOEvent_v1.1.html VOEvent] standard. In addition to some minor changes to better support heliophysical events, the HEK is developing a schema for classifying and describing features and events.
