The SOLIS project is currently operating two instruments, the Vector Spectromagnetograph (VSM) and the
Integrated Sunlight Spectrometer (ISS). A third instrument, the Full Disk Patrol (FDP), is expected to be installed
during 2008. Solar area-scans and full-disk photospheric and chromospheric longitudinal magnetograms are
recorded daily as part
of the VSM nominal observing program. Since August 2003, the VSM has recorded full-disk photospheric vector
magnetograms at least weekly and, since November 2006, area-scans of active regions daily. Quick-look vector
magnetic FITS formatted data and JPEG images are publicly available daily. In the near future, a typical VSM
observing day will include three full-disk photospheric vector magnetograms. Carrington rotation and daily
synoptic maps are also available from the photospheric magnetograms and coronal hole estimate images. In
addition, calibrated ISS spectra are available as both FITS formatted data and JPEG image files. Also, Ca II K-line
parameter time series data are available publicly as text formatted data and JPEG image files. These synoptic
products, along with recent science results, will be summarized in this presentation. The SOLIS synoptic
products are available at: http://solis.nso.edu/. SOLIS VSM data used here are produced cooperatively by
NSF/NSO and NASA/LWS. The NSO is operated by AURA, Inc. under a cooperative agreement with the NSF.
