Sheet No.: 4  –  In-situ data at 3 points

;    This example show how to plot the in-situ data are ACE and the STEREO Behind and Ahead
;    spacecraft. Event data from lists held in the the HEC showing the times of Stream 
;    Interaction Regions (SIR) are over-plotted on the light-curves. 

;    Create the HELIO SSW Object

hio_setup = obj_new('hio_setup')

;    Extablish a time interval

times=['1-jan-2008','1-mar-2008']
hio_setup -> set_basetime, timerange=times

;    Plot in-situ data for STA; load SIR event list and overplot

hio_setup -> plot, /insitu,/sta, win=20
hio_setup -> load_eventlist, name='stereoa_impactplastic_sir'
hio_setup -> show_event, /over, /all

;    Plot in-situ data for ACE; load SIR event list and overplot

hio_setup -> plot, /insitu,/ace, win=21
hio_setup -> load_eventlist, name='wind_ace_sir'
hio_setup -> show_event, /over, /all

;    Plot in-situ data for STB; load SIR event list and overplot

hio_setup -> plot, /insitu,/stb, win=22
hio_setup -> load_eventlist, name='stereob_impactplastic_sir'
hio_setup -> show_event, /over, /all

;    It is also possible to use low-level routines developed bu HELIO.
;    In this example, the solar wind velocity at the three spacecraft are compared.
