Enhancing SWxSOC through Open Collaboration for Multi-Mission Data Processing and Expedited Release

NASA's Space Weather Science Operations Center (SWxSOC) is an effort to develop a multi-mission Science Operations Center for the community, specifically for space weather missions, which requires data products to be released consistently and quickly. Currently supporting the Heliophysics Environmental and Radiation Measurement Experiment Suite (HERMES) on the Lunar Gateway and the PADRE Small Sat mission (launched June 2025), SWxSOC demonstrates its multi-mission capability in action. Through collaborative efforts with instrument teams, we've continually improved the pipeline based on feedback and requirements, making it more robust. These improvements include handling file dependencies for higher data levels and creating an easy reprocessing functionality. SWxSOC has established an open-source, reusable solution for transitioning data management from on-premises to the cloud, processing data files, and setting up a cloud-based analysis environment to monitor instrument anomalies. Leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) and making open-source tools available on GitHub, SWxSOC illustrates NASA's commitment to open-source standardization and collaboration and showcases the real-world effectiveness of cloud technology in data processing, analysis, and observability. This enhances current operations and ensures faster, standardized deployments for future missions.

Abstract

NASA's Space Weather Science Operations Center (SWxSOC) is an effort to develop a multi-mission Science Operations Center for the community, specifically for space weather missions, which requires data products to be released consistently and quickly. Currently supporting the Heliophysics Environmental and Radiation Measurement Experiment Suite (HERMES) on the Lunar Gateway and the PADRE Small Sat mission (launched June 2025), SWxSOC demonstrates its multi-mission capability in action. Through collaborative efforts with instrument teams, we've continually improved the pipeline based on feedback and requirements, making it more robust. These improvements include handling file dependencies for higher data levels and creating an easy reprocessing functionality. SWxSOC has established an open-source, reusable solution for transitioning data management from on-premises to the cloud, processing data files, and setting up a cloud-based analysis environment to monitor instrument anomalies. Leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) and making open-source tools available on GitHub, SWxSOC illustrates NASA's commitment to open-source standardization and collaboration and showcases the real-world effectiveness of cloud technology in data processing, analysis, and observability. This enhances current operations and ensures faster, standardized deployments for future missions.
