Summary
Abstract: ABSTRACT: More than 17 million selected magnetic observations from several orbiting low-altitude satellites are contained in this digital collection. Except for MAGSAT, all the observations are of total intensity (F) only. The MAGSAT data contain both scalar and vector X, Y, Z) values. MAGSAT was launched into a sun-lit, sun- synchronous orbit (350 to 550 km high) on October 30, 1979 with re- ... View entire text

Purpose: PURPOSE: Provide a WW Data Collection of Magnetic Observations from Low Orbit Satellites
