4. The SEPEM system SEPEM: Solar Energetic Particle Environment Modelling Database of H, He and heavy ion datasets Raw data Cleaned data Cross calibrated data (H and He reference datasets) Abundance ratio tables to scale He to heavy ion fluxes Treatment of magnetospheric shielding Calculation of radiation effect quantities TID, TNID, SEU rates, spacecraft shielded flux Mulassis for H, IRONSSIS for He and heavy ions Creation of event lists Implementation of statistical models Time above threshold, event duration Probability curves of total mission and worst event quantities Error propagation Heliospheric H models (distance dependent) 12/11/2018 Final Presentation Day, ESTEC, The Netherlands 4

5. SEPEM databases SEPEM used a single MySQL database to store spacecraft data as well as user account information and user generated content (event lists, response functions, model runs, ) Spacecraft data are now stored in a separate database, an ODI instance (see later presentation) New, extended and consistent metadata Consistent variable naming, e.g. FPDO for differential omnidirectional proton flux (COSPAR/PRBEM standard) Make use of existing ODI download and storage mechanisms Streamlined procedure for adding new datasets and updating existing ones Harmonisation with other ESA tools (e.g. SEDAT) Transparent to the user 12/11/2018 Final Presentation Day, ESTEC, The Netherlands 5
