Use GET /epw/<dataset_name> to retrieve the contents of the data file (.epw) of a given dataset name
A successful /epw/<dataset_name> transaction returns the contents of the EPW file of the given dataset. The datasets can be from either energyplus.net or climate.onebuilding.org. The dataset name is normally the name of the EPW file without the extension .epw.
