The purpose of this paper is to forecast the maximum solar flare magnitude in an active region and its uncertainty from photospheric magnetic field data. We analyzed 21 flare samples covering X-ray flare magnitudes from A5.0 to X17.0. Photospheric magnetic parameters are obtained from vector and line of sight magnetograms observed with the Solar F…
