The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission investigates the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) and its interaction with our heliosphere, in part, through sampling of Interstellar Neutral (ISN) atoms.  Over 12 years of observations have provided the opportunity to monitor this interaction over the course of an entire solar cycle.  The growing ISN He dataset provides a unique opportunity to enhance our knowledge of the parameters that describe the state of the VLISM and its motion relative to the Sun.  This data release provides yearly count, rate and exposure time maps.  The rate maps include necessary corrections and include the contributions of ISN H and He as a function of orbit and spin angle for Lo energy steps 2 and 3.  This data release also includes ancillary data for each orbit with valid data.
