ISEE-3 1-minute Magnetic Field Data with Solar Wind Speed included

It often happens that there are lengthy segments where one or another parameter (or many parameters) are absent, as indicated by the special flag values. The original data were contained on two 9-track tapes, in IBM binary format, with the following DCB: (LRECL=88,BLKSIZE=26404,RECFM=VBS,DEN=3). The original tape (ID 78-079A-02J) was created at GSFC by J. King from reduced magnetometer data provided by E. Smith (JPL) and plasma data provided by S. Bame / R. Zwickl (LANL).

This ASCII version of the data set was created at NSSDC by H. K. Hills in March and August, 2002. The conversion from binary was handled by the VAX operating system, and a special program unblocked the input and wrote the ASCII output. The precision of the ASCII version was selected to keep sufficient precision without using excessive space.
