Abstract: One of the main goals of solar and heliospheric physics is to gain a complete picture of the dynamic processes occurring in the solar corona and how these influence the inner heliosphere. Missions such as ESA/NASA's Solar Orbiter, which couples unprecedented, close-up views of the solar atmosphere to solar wind measurements in the inner heliosphere, provide invaluable insights into the sources, release and transport of the solar wind. I will highlight results from Solar Orbiter's first dedicated Fast Wind SOOP campaign in October 2023, connecting microstreams to their coronal sources. I will also present a new connectivity pipeline developed during the ESA Hackathon, which has been used to analyse the March 2025 observations from Solar Orbiter's first latitudinal scan of the southern polar coronal hole, enabled by its recently inclined orbit.
