%%(color:red;)__NEW!__%% The [EIS Mapper|https://eismapper.pyoung.org] site allows you to quickly see where EIS was pointed on a given day, by overplotting on a full disk EUV image.
The large quantity of EIS data coupled with the large number of free parameters (raster size, wavelength windows, slit choice) means that it can be quite difficult to find the perfect data-set if you don't already know which study you want. Check out [Tips for finding the perfect data-set|TipsPerfect] to get some hints on searching for data.

The EIS slots produce images rather than spectra, and the most common application will be to produce movies from the slot rasters in a range of emission lines.
The EIS slots produce images rather than spectra, and the most common application will be to produce movies from the slot rasters in a range of emission lines. Diagnostics are possible with the slots, however, by taking ratios of images and temperature and density diagnostics are described below.

The data should be calibrated with eis_prep in the same way as narrow slit data. If you're working with slot rasters, then you can assemble the data into a single 2D image within a 'windata' structure with

A series of Software Notes have been written that give details about various technical aspects related to the EIS mission. Some of these documents are published are Zenodo and so have a citable DOI. Please use this if you reference the documents in a paper.
