How far does it extend?
Height measurement makes the prominence easier to compare and report.
Measure prominences instead of only pointing at them.
Prominences are dramatic, but they become more valuable when measured: height, length, curvature, limb position and evolution across captures. AIT Solar Insight gives this work a dedicated place inside AIT.
How much limb does it span?
Length helps separate a small limb feature from a larger event.
What is its shape?
Curvature and annotation help communicate the structure more clearly.
