Summary

The USGS Geomagnetism Program operates a network of magnetic observatories that collect vector and scalar magnetometer data for use in Earth main-field modeling, geophysics research, space physics research, and space weather hazard assessment and mitigation. Until mid-2011, only 1-minute time resolution magnetic field measurements were archived with the INTERMAGNET consortium following international magnetic observatory standards. 1-second time resolution magnetic field measurements, which had already been collected by all the USGS observatories for up to almost a decade prior, started being archived with INTERMAGNET on June 13, 2011, or July 27, 2012 in the case of the more recently constructed Deadhorse (DED) magnetic observatory.

Purpose

These data are appropriate for geophysical research, space physics research, and space weather hazard assessment and mitigation. They are not fully calibrated, nor have they been checked for anomalies, and are therefore not appropriate for applications with absolute accuracy requirements, like Earth main-field modeling.
