Virtual Solar Observatory API

The Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO) combines access to observations of the Sun, including images. Data files are included from all NASA solar-observing missions, as well as ground-based observatories. Searches can be conducted using instrument names, data type (e.g. "magnetogram"), time intervals, spectral range, event, and more.

The API uses the SOAP protocol.
