Abstract
Collecting the NOAA-HRPT data received at saveral stations in Japan in the past, the HRPT data set is produced by a standardized format. The collected HRPT data were obtained by the NOAA6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 during 1981-1988. The total number of the HRPT data is 1570. The data are stored in the optical disks with a capacity of 5 GBytes, which ensure the several ten years of the data life in the future. This paper describes the purpose and production processes of the HRPT data set, and duscusses its significance together with points at issue.
