Solar energetic particle (SEP) event forecasting often involves integrating heterogeneous observations that differ in cadence, temporal coverage, format, and historical availability, posing challenges for reproducible analysis of data-driven approaches. This paper presents SEP-PRISM Data, a curated multi-source dataset designed for 24-hour ahead forecasting of operational SEP events, defined by proton flux exceeding 10 pfu in the GOES > 10 MeV channel. SEP-PRISM Data integrates flare records, active-region magnetic field parameters, coronal mass ejection (CME) catalogue data, GOES soft X-ray flux, and historical proton flux into a common window-based representation spanning 3 February 1986 to 10 September 2025. To improve temporal coverage and cross-source consistency, SHARP and SMARP magnetic products were aligned into a unified SMHARP archive, and CME records from DONKI and CDAW were aligned into a unified CDAWDONKI event set. Predictor variables were summarized over fixed non-overlapping 24-hour historical windows using minimum, mean, and maximum statistics and paired with targets defined over the subsequent 24-hour window, forming a supervised learning dataset. The resulting SEP-PRISM Data contains 14,464 labeled samples, including 650 positive operational SEP cases, and is intended to support reproducible benchmarking, model development, feature analysis, and future studies of space weather forecasting.
