Data Set Description

The GOES magnetometer products are an integral part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) space weather operations, providing information on the general level of geomagnetic activity and permitting detection of magnetic storms and substorms.
Historically, the data have been presented in the E (earthward), P (parallel) and N (normal) coordinate system where:
Hp:  magnetic field vector component, points northward, perpendicular to the orbit plane which for a zero degree inclination orbit is parallel to Earth's spin axis.
He:  magnetic field vector component, perpendicular to Hp and Hn and points earthward.
Hn:  magnetic field vector component, perpendicular to Hp and He and points eastward.
Ht:  the total field.
