solo-epd-loader

Data loader (and downloader) for Solar Orbiter/EPD energetic charged particle sensors EPT, HET, and STEP. Supports level 2, 3, and low latency data provided by ESA's Solar Orbiter Archive.

Data loader (and downloader) for Solar Orbiter/EPD energetic charged particle sensors EPT, HET, and STEP. Supports level 2, 3, and low latency data provided by ESA's Solar Orbiter Archive. It reads EPD CDF files into pandas DataFrames with fluxes, uncertainties, energy-channel metadata, and, for supported level 3 products, pitch-angle distributions and RTN/HCI spacecraft context. It can retrieve missing files from SOAR, combine energy channels and STEP pixels, resample time series, calculate STEP electron fluxes, and correct EPT electron fluxes for ion contamination. Only standard rates products are supported; SIS, burst, and high-cadence products are not included.
