Short summary
Travelling ionospheric disturbances behave like waves in the ionosphere, the ionised upper part of the atmosphere. In this study, we use an ionospheric tomography technique to map the electron content as affected by the passage of a large-scale travelling ionospheric disturbance launched during the largest geomagnetic storm observed by modern instruments. This is the first such imaging using this software and to the authors' knowledge the first study of this travelling ionospheric disturbance.
