Description
Operational Level 0A image data from the Compact Coronagraph-2 (CCOR-2) aboard the SOLAR-1 spacecraft. Each observation is stored as separate T1 and N2 partial-field FITS files using different onboard compression schemes. The two Level 0A components are combined during Level 0B processing to form a single full-frame image. The Level 0A images have dimensions of 2048 by 1920 pixels and contain detector data numbers (DN). They have not yet been rectified, and usable spatial calibration and WCS parameters are not yet populated. The data are produced at an approximately 15-minute cadence.

Description
CCOR-2 Level 0A white-light image data stored as 2048 x 1920 pixel 16-bit image arrays in detector data numbers (DN). Each observation is represented by two Level 0A FITS files acquired at the same observation time and using different onboard compression schemes. The images have not been rectified, and usable spatial calibration and WCS values are not yet populated at Level 0A. The CCOR-2 bandpass is approximately 469 to 755 nm. Observation timing is recorded in the FITS header.
