Real-time (Quicklook) AE index
Note!
These data are only for non-commercial purpose.
Important!
Since December 2024,
digital values of the real-time AE index have been published
to the data repository.
The values can be used
for scientific research not only for monitoring purposes.
Use guidelines:
The real-time Auroral Electrojet (AE) indices
in the period when digital values are not published
are for monitoring, diagnostics and forcasting purposes only,
as we use raw data without any visual checks.
The provisional and final AE indices will be published at later dates.
Users are advised to use the final/provisional version for analyses
as long as available.
