Operation of a Data Acquisition, Transfer, and Storage System for the Global Space-Weather Observation Network
Abstract
A system to optimize the management of global space-weather observation networks has been developed by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT). Named the WONM (Wide-area Observation Network Monitoring) system, it enables data acquisition, transfer, and storage through connection to the NICT Science Cloud, and has been supplied to observatories for supporting space-weather forecast and research. This system provides us with easier management of data collection than our previously employed systems by means of autonomous system recovery, periodical state monitoring, and dynamic warning procedures. Operation of the WONM system is introduced in this report.
