Parameter #3
Name
event_start_time
Description

event_start_time: For in situ spacecraft, similar to icme_start_time in the ICMECAT. For STEREO-A-HI (HIA), its the see_launch_time from HIGeoCAT, for DONKI its time21_5 from the DONKI database. unit: UTC.

Parameter #4
Name
spacecraft
Description

spacecraft: HIA if the entry refers to observations from STEREO-A-HI; STEREO A: SECCHI/COR2, SOHO: LASCO/C2 if the entry refers to coronagraph observations by either STEREO-A or SOHO; otherwise the in situ observing spacecraft. unit: string.
