Development of space weather monitoring platform using wix.com / Siti Zuriaty Ahmad Zaidi

Space weather monitoring is crucial in ensuring maximum benefit in the operation of satellites, radio, power grids and many more. In this thesis, it discusses the development of space weather monitoring platform named as Space and Earth's Electromagnetism Universiti Teknologi MARA (SEE-UiTM). Prior to the development of SEE-UiTM, the local researchers in space weather monitoring area are required to refer various websites and data bases. This causes monitoring process less effective. This platform provides a 'one-stop-center' for the researcher to monitor the space weather events comprehensively. It covers parameters of Sun, Interplanetary Space, Magnetosphere and Geomagnetic. The data for these parameters are extracted from Solar Monitor for Sun, ACE Real Time Solar Wind for Interplanetary Space, Geomagnetic Data Service for Magnetosphere and INTERMAGNET for Geomagnetic. The assigned members or researchers will prepare daily or weekly space weather report and will be validated before it is publicized. The navigation panel is arranged systematically to help new researchers or beginners understand the space weather monitoring processes. With this platform, the space weather monitoring process will become easier and systematic. Since space weather areas are relatively new in Malaysia, this developed platform is expected to encourage more researchers or students to explore into this area of study.
