Preliminary results of distinguishing solar filaments on daily observation data at the Hα spectral line of the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory (1912-2002) are presented.
To distinguish the boundaries of solar filaments, methods have been developed, based on automatic procedures for distinguishing low-contrast objects on the solar disk as well as on editing the boundaries of selected structures in semi-automatic mode. An analysis of solar filaments’ characteristics has been performed. We are considered variation of the average tilt-angle and the radius of curvature of the filaments in 15-23 cycles of activity.
