Abstract

Recently, the National Solar Observatory (NSO) Solar-atmosphere Pipeline Working Group has undertaken the production of synoptic maps from Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) magnetograms. A set of maps has been processed spanning the data available for 2010-2015 using twice daily images (taken at UT midnight and noon) and running them through the same algorithms used to produce SOLIS/VSM 6302l mean-magnetic and spatial-variance maps. The contents of this document provide an overview of what these maps look like, and the processing steps used to generate them from the original HMI input data.
