Abstract

Cross-sectional studies have become important for an improved understanding of various Solar-Terrestrial Physics (STP) fields, given the great variety and different types of observations from the Sun to the Earth. In order to better combine, compare, and analyze different types of data together, a system named STARS (Solar-Terrestrial data Analysis and Reference System) has been developed. Cross-sectional study requires cooperative work. STARS has two functions for cooperative work, the "Stars Project List (SPL)" and the "Event Listing". The SPL is used for exchanges of plotting information by cooperating persons. The event list database provides all users of STARS hints for recognizing typical occurrences of STP phenomena.
