There are two EPEADs on each satellite, one looking east and one looking west. For more information, please see T. G. Onsager et al. (1996), Operational uses of the GOES energetic particle detectors, in GOES-8 and Beyond, Proc. SPIE, Vol. 2812, edited by E. R. Washwell, pp. 281-290, Bellingham, WA. These data file contain mainly information on the alpha particle fluxes from B detector. Data files contain long descriptive header.

The data are sorted by year, month, spacecraft, and file type. The file names indicates the data type, spacecraft number, year, month, and resolution. For example, g13_epead_a16e_32s_20080301_20080301.csv, indicates goes 13 magnetometer data at 32 s resolution from start of March 1, 2008 to the end of March 1, 2008.
