SunPy

sunpy is a community-developed free and open-source software package for solar physics. It aims to be a comprehensive data analysis environment that allows researchers within the field of solar physics to carry out their tasks with the minimal effort.

The SunPy Project was established in order to further the goals of the sunpy package and aims to provide the software tools necessary so that anyone can analyze the ever increasing catalogue of solar data. This enables the targeted support of other solar physics Python packages that do not fall within the scope of the core sunpy package.
