Using aia_prep.pro to Align and Derotate AIA Data

In its most basic usage, the aia_prep.pro routine is called as follows:

aia_prep,fnames,indices,out_index,out_data

Note

If it is necessary to revert AIA data to their state prior to the despiking process, as discussed in Despiking and/or Respiking AIA Data, and/or to perform a PSF-deconvolution, as discussed in Point Spread Function Deconvolution, these operations should be performed prior to aia_prep.pro. These operations are not common, but may be necessary in some cases.
