  2. Magnetic declination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_declination

    Somewhat more formally, Bowditch defines variation as "the angle between the magnetic and geographic meridians at any place, expressed in degrees and minutes east or west to indicate the direction of magnetic north from true north. The angle between magnetic and grid meridians is called grid magnetic angle, grid variation, or grivation." [1]

  5. World Magnetic Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Magnetic_Model

    The Enhanced Magnetic Model (EMM) is a sister product of the NGDC featuring a much higher amount of data to degree and order 790, giving a wavelength of 51 km as opposed to the 3000 km of WMM. At this resolution, it is not only able to model the Earth's magnetic field at the core-mantle boundary ("main field"), but also take into account ...

  6. Satellite ground track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_ground_track

    A satellite ground track may be thought of as a path along the Earth's surface that traces the movement of an imaginary line between the satellite and the center of the Earth. In other words, the ground track is the set of points at which the satellite will pass directly overhead, or cross the zenith, in the frame of reference of a ground observer.

  7. International Geomagnetic Reference Field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Geomagnetic...

    The International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) is a standard mathematical description of the large-scale structure of the Earth's main magnetic field and its secular variation. It was created by fitting parameters of a mathematical model of the magnetic field to measured magnetic field data from surveys, observatories and satellites ...

    The World Digital Magnetic Anomaly Map (WDMAM) was first made available by the Commission for the Geological Map of the World in 2007. Compiled with data from governments and institutes, [ 1 ] the project was coordinated by the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy , and was presented by Mike Purucker of NASA and Colin Reeves ...
