Format of the downloadable CSV files

The downloadable CSV files do not all have the same format. For example, outputs of the historical files (Gauquelin, Müller, Ertel, skeptics) sometimes contain fields coming from the original source (like Gauquelin sector position, eminence indications).

But some fields are standardized, the list below describe them.
