SSC RESTful Web Services API at the Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF)

The Satellite Situation Center (SSC) web services allow a software developer to use portions of the SSC software in their own applications. SSC is a system to cast geocentric spacecraft location information into a framework of (empirical) geophysical regions and mappings of spacecraft locations along lines of the Earth’s magnetic field. This capability is one key to mission science planning (both single missions and coordinated observations of multiple spacecraft with ground-based investigations) and to subsequent multi-mission data analysis. The Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF) is the archive of non-solar data for the Heliospheric Science Division (HSD) at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.
