AutoTAB is a state-of-the-art, fully automatic algorithm that tracks the Bipolar Magnetic Regions (BMRs) in magnetogram observations. employs identified BMR regions from Line-of-Sight magnetograms MDI and HMI (1996--2022) to track BMRs through their evolution on nearside of Sun. enables us create comprehensive unique catalog tracked information 9232 mentioned time period. This dataset used study collective statistical properties particularly identify correct theory for formation. Here, we discuss algorithm's functionality initial findings obtained catalog.
