For more details see the output file parameters description.

The names of stage:

The decades include the part of month as follows:

Each decade includes couple of day's extension.

For example the file with name aa9610d1.geo contains the information corresponding to the aposteriory magnetic mapping for INTERBALL Auroral Probe for the first decade of October 1996.
