The Helioviewer Project maintains a set of Public APIs with the goal of improving access to solar and heliospheric datasets to scientists, educators, developers, and the general public. Read below for descriptions of each API endpoint and examples of usage.
Browse APIs by category using the menu above, or consult the Appendix for more about the available datasources and working with coordinates.
For easy access to API responses within your code, check out the open-source libraries available at Unirest.io. Libraries are provided for integration with Python, PHP, Java, Ruby, Objective-C, Node.js, .NET, and Windows 8 code bases.
Helioviewer.org and JHelioviewer operate off of JPEG2000 formatted image data generated from science-quality FITS files. Use the APIs below to interact directly with these intermediary JPEG2000 files.
Download a JP2 image for the specified datasource that is the closest match in time to the `date` requested.
Parameter | Required | Type | Example | Description |
date | Required | string | 2014-01-01T23:59:59Z | Desired date/time of the JP2 image. ISO 8601 combined UTC date and time UTC format. |
sourceId | Required | number | 14 | Unique image datasource identifier. |
jpip | Optional | boolean | false | Optionally return a JPIP URI instead of the binary data of the image itself. |
json | Optional | boolean | false | Optionally return a JSON object. |
By default, JPEG2000 binary image data is returned. This assumes that the `jpip` parameter is omitted or set to `false`.
If request parameter `jpip` is set to `true` (and the `json` parameter is omitted or set to `false`) the reponse is a plain text string.
jpip://helioviewer-api.ias.u-psud.fr:8080/AIA/2014/01/02/335/2014_01_02__00_00_02_62__SDO_AIA_AIA_335.jp2
If request parameters `jpip` and `json` are both set to `true`, the reponse is a JSON object.

The movie APIs can be used to generate custom videos of up to three image datasource layers composited together. Solar feature/event markers pins, extended region polygons, associated text labels, and a size-of-earth scale indicator can optionally be overlayed onto a movie.
Movie generation is performed asynchronously due to the amount of resources required to complete each video. Movie requests are queued and then processed (in the order in which they are received) by one of several worker processes operating in parallel.
As a user of the API, begin by sending a 'queueMovie' request. If your request is successfully added to the queue, you will receive a response containing a unique movie identifier. This identifier can be used to monitor the status of your movie via 'getMovieStatus' and then download or play it (via 'downloadMovie' or 'playMovie') once its status marked as completed.
Movies may contain between 10 and 300 frames. The movie frames are chosen by matching the closest image available at each step within the specified range of dates, and are automatically selected by the API. The region to be included in the movie may be specified using either the top-left and bottom-right coordinates in arc-seconds, or a center point in arc-seconds and a width and height in pixels. See the Coordinates Appendix for more infomration about working with the coordinates used by Helioviewer.org.
Create a custom movie by submitting a request to the movie generation queue. The response returned will provide you with a unique Movie ID that can be used to check on the status of your movie (via `getMovieStatus`) and to download your movie (via `downloadMovie`).

The screenshot APIs can be used to generate custom videos of up to three image datasource layers composited together. Solar feature/event markers pins, extended region polygons, associated text labels, and a size-of-earth scale indicator can optionally be overlayed onto a movie.
Generate a custom screenshot.
You must specify values for either `x1`, `y1`, `x2`, and `y2`
or `x0`, `y0`, `width` and `height`.
By default, the response is a JSON object containing a unique screenshot identifier (`id`) that can be used to with the `downloadScreenshot` API endpoint.
Set the `display` parameter to `true` to directly return the screenshot as binary PNG image data in the response.
Please note that each request causes the server to generate a screenshot from scratch and is resource intensive. For performance reasons, you should cache the response if you simply intend to serve exactly the same screenshot to multiple users.

Output the hierarchical list of available datasources in a format that is compatible with the JHelioviewer desktop client.
Request a single image tile to be used in the Helioviewer.org Viewport. Tiles are 512x512 pixel PNG images, generated for a given image scale from the intermediary JPEG2000 image files.
Use the `getClosestImage` API endpoint to obtain the desired image identifier for the `id` parameter.
Parameter | Required | Type | Example | Description |
id | Required | number | 36275490 | Unique image identifier. |
x | Required | number | -1 | Tile position. |
y | Required | number | -1 | Tile position. |
imageScale | Required | number | 2.42044088 | Image scale in arcseconds per pixel. |
difference | Required | number | 0 | Specify image type difference. 0 - Display regular image; 0 - Running difference image; 0 - Base difference image. |
diffCount | Required | number | 60 | Used to display Running difference image. Work with "diffTime" parameter and set amount of time to use in tyme period |

The APIs for creating custom movies ('queueMovie') and screenshot images ('takeScreenshot') require that you specify a rectangular region-of-interest (ROI). The ROI defines the field-of-view of the video or image in terms of a zoom level and the location and size of the region.
The region-of-interest may be defined in either of two ways. Both methods require an 'imageScale' expressed in arc-seconds per pixel, and atleast one pair of X- and Y-coordinates (expressed as arc-seconds from the center of the solar disk).
The first method defines the ROI based on a pair parameters specifying the X- and Y-coordinates for the top-left ('x1','y1') and bottom-right ('x2','y2') corners of rectangle.
An alternative method defines the ROI in terms of the X- and Y-coordinates of the center of the region ('x0','y0'), coupled with the total width and height of the rectangle in pixels. Use this method if the pixel dimensions of the output are important to you. The APIs handle the translation between arc-seconds and pixels based on the value of 'imageScale' that you have specified.
Smaller values of 'imageScale' will produce results that appear "zoomed-in" to show more detail.
Below is a listing of the native image scales by datasource:
Datasource | Dimensions (pixels) | Image Scale (arc-seconds/pixel) |
---|---|---|
PROBA2 SWAP | 1024 x 1024 | 3.162 |
SDO AIA | 4096 x 4096 | 0.6 |
SDO HMI | 4096 x 4096 | 0.6 |
SOHO EIT | 1024 x 1024 | 2.63 |
SOHO LASCO C2 | 1024 x 1024 | 11.9 |
SOHO LASCO C3 | 1024 x 1024 | 56.0 |
SOHO MDI | 1024 x 1024 | 1.986 |
STEREO SECCHI EUVI | 2048 x 2048 | 1.588 |
STEREO SECCHI COR1 | 512 x 512 | 15.0 |
STEREO SECCHI COR2 | 2048 x 2048 | 14.7 |
Yohkoh SXT | 1024 x 1024 | 2.46 |
You are not limited to creating screenshots and movies at a datasource's native resolution. Each image layer will be scaled to match the imageScale you have requested.
