Gap analyses by variable, type of mission or WIGOS subcomponent
Variable sorting criteria
Each instrument is assigned with an up-to-5-step rating, evaluated as a blend of several elements. For this particular Variable, the rating is driven by:
the observed solar area (disk only or disk + corona or corona only);
the spatial resolution:
whether measuring flux or spectrum.
RATING CRITERIA:
1
VIS spectrometer with polarisation and Doppler capability
2
Disk + corona, VIS fluxmeter with polarisation and possibly Doppler capability, high spatial resolution
Disk only, VIS fluxmeter with polarisation and possibly Doppler capability, high spatial resolution
3
Disk + corona, VIS fluxmeter with polarisation and possibly Doppler capability, coarse spatial resolution
Disk only, VIS fluxmeter with polarisation and possibly Doppler capability, coarse spatial resolution
4
Occultation coronagraph with polarisation capability
5
Close-to-Sun viewing, measurement by magnetic and electric fields oscillation
