Introduction to the GOES 12 space environment monitor.
Additional GOES Triaxial Fluxgate Magnetometer information.
Additional GOES Triaxial Fluxgate Magnetometer header information.
Direct link to the GOES 12 SEM data in ASCII format as well as the energetic particle data from other GOES spacecraft. The data are sorted by year. The file names indicates the data type, spacecraft number, year, month, and resolution. For example, A0558606.FIT indicates the type of particle data (A) for spacecraft 5 (05) at 5 min time resolution (5) from June 1986 (8606).
Time is given in 3 columns. Time format in data files is YYMMDD HHMM DOY (2-digit year, 2-digit month, 2-digit day, 2-digit hour, 2-digit minute, and 3-digit day of year.

Solar X-ray monitor flux in Two different wavelength ranges in units of W/m^2
Solar X-ray monitor fluxes from two wavelength ranges: 1 to 8 Å and 0.5 to 4 Å
Magnetic field vector for GOES 12 in spacecraft coordinates in units of 0.1 nT. The values must be divided by a factor of 10 to nT. HP is parallel to the satellite spin axis, which is itself: perpendicular to the orbital plane of the spacecraft. HE lies parallel: to the satellite-earth center line and points earthward. HN is: perpendicular to both HP and HE, and points eastward for GOES 12.

Uncorrected ≥2 MeV electrons number fluxes in units of counts/(cm^2 s sr). These values are especially unreliable during ion storms.
Corrected Proton number fluxes in units of counts/(cm^2 s sr MeV) for 7 different energy channels.
Each Name provides the energy range for each channel.
