contents The flux of cosmic rays (CRs) in the heliosphere is subjected to remarkable time variations caused by the 11-year cycle of solar activity. To help the study of this effect, we have developed a web application (Heliophysics Virtual Observatory) that collects real-time data on solar activity, interplanetary plasma, and charged radiation from several space missions or observatories. As we will show, our application can be used to visualize, manipulate, and download updated data on sunspots, heliospheric magnetic fields, solar wind, and neutron monitors counting rates. Data and calculations are automatically updated on daily basis. A nowcasting for the energy spectrum of CR protons near-Earth is also provided using calculations and real-time neutron monitor data as input.
