[http://sol.spacenvironment.net/~ionops/images/LWS_thumbnail.jpg]       NASA's Living With a Star program provided support for the solar flare evolution data component and visualization using the Google Earth platform.

Due to the dramatic increase in demand for our visual demonstration of space weather affects on the ionosphere, these free ES4D images - which are intended for educational purposes - represent the ionosphere 3 hours prior to the current time. Also note the images will require a manual refresh for updated images.

Please visit our secure on-line store<http://terra1.spacenvironment.net:8080/sol/SIP_Order_Form.html> for purchasing the Premier CAPS/ES4D application with real-time capability (and which includes a number of other capabilities for mission-critical operations) at a $14.95 US monthly or $119 yearly rate. For additional information, please contact us at spacenvironment  spacenvironment.net<mailto:spacenvironment  spacenvironment.net>.

 1.  Download and install the Google Earth<http://earth.google.com/> © application

 2.  Download one or more of following ES4D KML files to your computer:

 3.  Double-click or drag-drop the files selected above onto the Google Earth application icon

 4.  In Google Earth, select one or more the desired views under Places

 5.  Select optional Google Earth Views:
    *   Weather in the Layers sidebar
    *   Terrain in the Layers sidebar
    *   Grid (lat/long) under View Menu
