This URL is the root location of the POLAR EFI archive. It consists of Yearly subdirectories: 1996, 1997, ..., 2008 each of which consists of Monthly subdirectories: 01, 02, ..., 12 The archive files for a given date are located in the corresponding YY/MM subdirectory.
Data point time-tags which are double precision floating point numbers which represent the number of seconds, UTC, from midnight of the day represented by the file.
Data point vector values which are a triplet of single precision floating point numbers which represent the X,Y,Z components of the electric field. These vectors are in one-to-one correspondence with the values in the TIME_TAG parameter. This data is sampled at high data rates and stored in onboard memory before later playback.
