Description

Direct link to the GOES 12 EPS data in ASCII format as well as the energetic particle data from other GOES spacecraft. The data are sorted by year, month, spacecraft. The file names indicates the spacecraft number, data type, and time range. For example, g08_eps_1m_19950801_19950131.csv indicates the GOES 8 spacecraft EPS data from 1995-08-01 to 1995-01-31.
