The major data sources are theworldwide network of ionosondes, the powerful incoherent scatter radars(Jicamarca, Arecibo, Millstone Hill, Malvern, St. Santin), the ISIS and Alouette topside sounders, and in situ instruments flown on many satellites androckets. IRI is updated yearly during special IRI Workshops (e.g., during COSPAR general assembly). More informationcan be found in the workshop reports. The IRI model and software is updated according to the decisions of the IRI Working Group. The software package includes the FORTRAN subroutines, model coefficients (CCIR, URSI, IGRF), indices files (IG_RZ.DAT, APF107.DAT) and README and LICENSE files. The IRI build-up and formulas are described in detail in a 158-page NSSDC report by Bilitza (1990) (PDF accessible in REFERENCES). An IRI listserver keeps the community informed about model updates, workshops, publication,and other IRI-related matters.

One particular conversation turned to common and uncommon baby names. (My own kids are in the former category, and a coworker's is in the latter.) Being the data-driven MATLAB nerds that we are, we figured there must be a way to quantify just how common a given name is. I recalled that, for the U.S., the Social Security Administration keeps records of baby names. A minute or two with a well-known internet search engine and I had my data source -- a zip file containing names and numbers for each year from 1880 to 2014. All I had to do was read the data from these files into MATLAB, and I'd be able to find out where any given name ranked in all-time popularity.
