This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on retrieving EUI data and aligning it with AIA and IRIS in Python.
Part of the Combining Data over Satellites mini-workshop at the SDO 2025 Science Workshop (February 21st, 2025). Find the mini-workshop slides here.

In order to follow along with this tutorial locally, we'll need to clone this repository (download the files) and activate a conda environment (install the necessary packages).
These steps assume you already have conda installed (if you don't, follow the conda installation guide here).
First, we need to copy this github repository on to your computer. To do this, open your terminal and type:
git clone https://github.com/aylaweitz/SDO-EUI-mini-workshop.git
You can also just download this repository as a zip file! Click on green code button on the top right hand side and then click download zip.
Now navigate into the newly created SDO-EUI-mini-workshop repository. Type:
cd SDO-EUI-mini-workshop
The python packages required to run this workshop notebook are listed in the environment.yml file in this repository. To create an environment with these packages installed, in terminal type:
conda env create -f environment.yml
This will then create a new conda environment called SDO_EUI_workshop (this name is listed in the environment.yml file). It may take a little bit for this to run.
To activate the environment we just created, run the following:
conda activate SDO_EUI_workshop
Inside the environment we just activated, type:
jupyter notebook
This should open up a window in your default browser. This is a jupyter notebook homepage where you can access and run this repository's tutorial notebook!
