The magnetometer had a range of +/- 1000 nT (without saturation) and a resolution of 0.1 nT. After temperature correction, and before (undescribed) stray-field correction, the accuracy is at about 1 nT level. Data files contain long descriptive header. N0AA; Dr. Howard J.

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, g08_magneto_1m_19950201_1995_02_28.csv, indicates goes 8 magnetometer data at 5 min resolution from Feb 1, 1995 to Feb 28, 1995. Text.ASCII None NASA, Dr. Howard J.
