VTEC Time Series

The ionospheric Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) is extracted from the near-real time European VTEC maps at 3 different locations (Figure 1):

• Northern part of Europe (lon: 5°; lat: 61°, top)
• Brussels (lon: 4.5°; lat: 50.5°, middle)
• Southern part of Europe (lon: 5°; lat: 36°, bottom)
