Data Set Overview
      =================
      This data set includes Voyager 2 Saturn encounter magnetometer
      data given in Heliographic coordinates and averaged from the 60 ms
      instrument sample rate to a 9.6 second resampled rate. The data set
      consists of the following columns: 1) UT of the sample in the format
      yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ, 2) spacecraft clock (m65536:mod60:fds-line),
      3) magnetometer id (1 = LFM, 2 = HFM), 4) Br (radial, Sun to spacecraft,
      B-field component), 5) Bt (azimuthal B-field component, positive in
      the direction of planetary orbital motion), 6) Bn (North/South B-field
      component, positive northward), 7) Bmag (magnitude of the averaged
      components), 8) avg_Bmag (average of the magnetic field magnitudes),
      9) delta (latitude = arcsin(Bn/Bmag)), 10) lambda (longitude =
      180. - atan(Bt/Br)), 11-13) rms vectors, 14) npts (number of points
      in average). All magnetic field observations are measured in nanoTesla.
      All of the magnetic field data are calibrated (see the instrument
      calibration description for more details). The reference documents for
      this data set are: [NESSETAL1979A], [LEPPINGETAL1981],
      [CONNERNEYETAL1981], [BEHANNONETAL1981].

        time       9.6 Sec     time of the sample (UT) in the
                               format yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ.
                               The full sampling rate for the
                               instrument is .06 +/- .006 sec.

        mod60 and              fds line
        fds_line


        mag_id     n/a         magnetometer ID


        magnetic   (nT)        measured parameter equaling the
        field                  magnetic field strength (e.g. in
        components             nanoTeslas) along a particular axis
        (Br, Bt, Bn)           direction. Usually the three
                               orthogonal axis components are
                               measured by three different sensors.


        magnetic   (nT)        derived parameter which combines the 3
        field vector           orthogonal magnetic field component
        (Bmag, avg_Bmag)       measurements.

        rms_Br,                Pythagorean root mean square deviation
        rms_Bt, and            of the magnetic component averages
        rms_Bn


        npts       (counts)    the number of data points in the
                               current average


      Ancillary Data
      ==============
      An ancillary data file containing the derived spacecraft
      magnetic field is provided with this data at a 48 second sample
      rate. These data provide zero level offsets used in the data
      processing. S/C field data is provided in spacecraft
      coordinates as follows:

Confidence Level Overview
      =========================
      This data set contains some data gaps and spikes. The data set
      does contain a flag value which has been provided by the PI
      (Norman Ness) that indicates whether or not a particular
      record has been contaminated by software error or by
      spacecraft interference (a flag value of 1 indicates a bad
      value, 0 indicates that the record has either not been
      evaluated or is good). Some records that are obviously
      contaminated have not been flagged. The hourly summary data
      will show a contamination code and data quality code of 2 when
      data in the hour have not been flagged but are obviously in
      error and a contamination code of 1 when the hour contains
      flagged records.
