Beginning in mid November the Auroral Activity products will be expanded to include data from the NOAA instrument on board the European MetOp satellite. As part of this upgrade the format of the Hemispheric Power Index files on the FTP site will change to improve readability. The files impacted are power_2007.txt (and future years), pwr_1day, and pwr_1day_bak.txt. The new format for text lines is the same in the three files. 2006-09-05 00:54:25 NOAA-16 (S) 7 29.67 0.82 Where the parameters are defined: A19 Date and UT at the center of the polar pass as YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss 1X (Space) A7 NOAA POES Satellite number 1X (Space) A3 (S) or (N) - hemisphere I3 Hemispheric Power Index (activity level) F7.2 Estimated Hemispheric Power in gigawatts F7.2 Normalizing factor SAMPLE pwr_1day file: 2007-10-11 00:32:00 NOAA-17 (S) 3 5.10 1.06 2007-10-11 00:38:00 NOAA-18 (S) 1 1.70 3.32 2007-10-11 00:51:00 NOAA-15 (S) 1 2.40 1.46 2007-10-11 00:54:00 METP-02 (S) 3 4.90 0.98 2007-10-11 01:22:00 NOAA-17 (N) 2 2.50 1.24 2007-10-11 01:29:00 NOAA-18 (N) 1 2.30 1.23 2007-10-11 01:30:00 NOAA-16 (S) 1 0.30 2.84 2007-10-11 01:42:00 NOAA-15 (N) 2 3.80 1.19 2007-10-11 01:44:00 METP-02 (N) 2 3.10 1.22 2007-10-11 02:13:00 NOAA-17 (S) 2 3.70 0.96 2007-10-11 02:21:00 NOAA-18 (S) 2 3.20 2.09 2007-10-11 02:33:00 NOAA-15 (S) 1 2.10 2.44 2007-10-11 02:35:00 METP-02 (S) 2 3.00 0.95 2007-10-11 03:03:00 NOAA-17 (N) 2 2.90 1.15 2007-10-11 03:13:00 NOAA-16 (S) 1 0.40 3.36 2007-10-11 03:24:00 NOAA-15 (N) 1 2.20 1.58 2007-10-11 03:25:00 METP-02 (N) 2 3.10 1.14 2007-10-11 03:54:00 NOAA-17 (S) 1 1.90 1.02 2007-10-11 04:04:00 NOAA-18 (S) 2 3.30 1.41 2007-10-11 04:05:00 NOAA-16 (N) 1 1.00 1.52 2007-10-11 04:16:00 NOAA-15 (S) 1 2.50 2.23 2007-10-11 04:17:00 METP-02 (S) 2 3.20 1.03 2007-10-11 04:45:00 NOAA-17 (N) 1 2.40 1.18 2007-10-11 04:56:00 NOAA-18 (N) 1 2.20 0.93 2007-10-11 04:57:00 NOAA-16 (S) 2 2.90 1.67 2007-10-11 05:07:00 NOAA-15 (N) 1 1.90 1.58 2007-10-11 05:36:00 NOAA-17 (S) 1 1.50 1.37 2007-10-11 05:46:00 NOAA-18 (S) 2 2.60 1.18 2007-10-11 05:49:00 NOAA-16 (N) 1 1.40 1.46 2007-10-11 05:58:00 NOAA-15 (S) 2 2.70 1.67 2007-10-11 05:59:00 METP-02 (S) 2 3.30 1.49 2007-10-11 06:26:00 NOAA-17 (N) 1 2.30 1.53 2007-10-11 06:38:00 NOAA-18 (N) 2 2.50 0.79 2007-10-11 06:39:00 NOAA-16 (S) 1 1.20 1.57 2007-10-11 06:50:00 NOAA-15 (N) 1 1.40 1.42 2007-10-11 07:18:00 NOAA-17 (S) 1 1.20 2.61 2007-10-11 07:29:00 NOAA-18 (S) 1 2.20 0.99 2007-10-11 07:31:00 NOAA-16 (N) 1 1.40 1.11 2007-10-11 07:40:00 NOAA-15 (S) 1 1.80 1.42 2007-10-11 07:41:00 METP-02 (S) 2 3.40 1.95
