1. Introduction
The Debrecen Photoheliographic Data (DPD) sunspot catalogue is compiled as a continuation of Greenwich Photoheliographic Results (GPR). This program has been commissioned by the International Astronomical Union. The basic data in a sunspot catalogue are the heliographic positions and the areas of the sunspots. The data are supplemented with images of sunspot groups, scans of full-disk white-light observations, and magnetic observations as well as their user-friendly HTML presentation. The catalogue is mainly based on our own (Debrecen and Gyula) full-disk white-light observations but gaps in this time series are filled by solar images from other observatories.
Sunspot data and images of DPD (see DPDformat.txt and README.txt) are now available for the following years (with its status and the date of the last modification)
