Commercial Applications of Space Weather Data

Space weather is defined as the physical and phenomenological state of natural space environments.Observation, monitoring, analysis and modelling of the state of the Sun and interplanetary and planetary environments (both via space- and ground-based observations) help us to understand its state and the possible impacts on Earth. There are several mechanisms of action (and concern) related to space weather impacts on humanity and Earth-based industries. These include the induction of geomagnetically-induced currents (GIC) in terrestrial conductors, fluctuations in Earth’s magnetic field as measured [...]
