The coordinate resolution for the magnetic field components is the
I,S coordinate system, defined by the JPL group before launch. I is
the unit vector in the direction of the ICE spin axis (positive in
the northward direction), and S is the unit vector from the space-
craft to the Sun. The Z-axis ia equal to I, the Y-axis to the nor-
malized cross-product I x S, and the x-axis to Y x Z. The I,S co-
ordinate system us approximately the same as the Solar Ecliptic (SE)
system since the spacecraft Z-axis is maintained within half a degree
of perpendicular to the Ecliptic plane. (SE is defined the same way
as GSE, but with the spacecraft [point of observation] substituted
for Earth).
